I'm not trying to disable the E-stop on a functioning system.

I have two computers.  The one that controls my mill is downstairs and off the network.  It is used solely for Mach3 so I don't run any other programs and don't have it on the network so no virus protection and such is needed.  I use my main computer upstairs to run Alibre and CamBam then transfer the files to the other system with a thumb drive when I'm ready to mill.

I loaded Mach3 on my main computer as I'd often like to step through the CamBam generated code with Mach3 to test it before taking it downstairs.  This system is not hooked up to a mill and I can't seem to turn the E-stop off so I can dry run the code.

Thanks,

Mark

If your Estop isnt reseting you may need to change the active low setting:

Config/Ports and Pins/InputSignal/
Scroll down to "Estop" and change your Active Low


Either that or turn off softlimits.

Found an easy fix.

I set it to emulate with the F1 key.

thanks,
