Mach only see's inputs when pockey software is running.

[thosj]

I have Pokeys and Smoothstepper and it seems to run fine. I think I run Pokeys 10.4. I tried 10.6.4 once and it didn't work, so I quit upgrading Pokeys plugin and just use 10.4. I'm not sure what you mean by "pokeys software running in the background." It's a plugin, and once activated, it should just run. You don't mean the Pokeys software for programming the pokeys, do you? I don't see how that would relate to Mach3 running Pokeys. I guess I don't have much to offer for help. What SS plugin are you using? I'm currently using 17bd, but I've used others all along and Pokeys and SS worked fine together.

One time there was something about load order of plugins, so maybe remove all the plugin dlls from the plugins folder, put them back one at a time, start Mach, activate it, stop Mach, add another. Do you have any other plugins running that might be conflicting. Maybe by reinstalling them one at a time and trying things you can figure out a conflict.

On the FRO brain, I have to do the code 223 line by using Send String and entering 223. If I use DRO and hand enter 223, it shows as OEMDRO 223, not just 223 as yours shows. I tried it with OEMDRO 223 and it didn't work. I have it working fine now.

Thanks again.

Hi Tom,
I mean the Pokeys software for programming the pokey! I would like tro try the plugin 10.4 but can't find it to download.Do you have a copy of this file?
Thanks Mat.

I do. Also, have you read Scott's thing about upgrading PoKeys? Here?  http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,16920.0.html  That may have been my problem when I tried a newer version. My upgrade didn't work, so I copied a copy of the entire Mach3 directory back and have since forgotten about upgrading PoKeys, it just works and I don't need to change anything.

I'll attach the file, not sure if that's OK, but if some mod deletes it, or it's too big (3.4MB), send me your email and I'll email it to you.
 
I can't seem to attach it. Too big? Says 6MB and the file is 3.4MB, but it won't post if I attach the file. I'll need an email address to send it to.

Hello!


I have the same problem like the Thread starter, Pokeys55 Signale comes only into Mach 3 when the Programming Software is running, and then its rly slow, only when the pokey windows is open with the digital  inputs it gets 100% faster but always not perfect,  how do u fix that problem now ?

i cant find Pokeys 10.4 version to download for an test
