Happy new year every body :-)

I use in my work a Roland MDX40 CNC, on the front panel she has a "view button" when i push this button  during machining the spindle up on Z and stop.
And when i push again the button the machinig restart where it was stopped.
Did you know how i could create the same button on Machine Kit panel?

I haven't seen much about this under Machinekit, but in Linuxcnc you can pause, and there is a script / button to allow you to job while paused. Alternatively you can usually ( because some gcode will get confused ) stop the run, move the spindle change a broken bit etc, and then select "run from selected line". you want to pick a line that will get the bit back into the appropriate place in all planes for this to work.
