Hi
I have a problem with my pokeys / mach4 system. I have everything connected (USB) and when i configure mach and pokeys everything works. But if i log out from the computer sometimes pokeys has lost connection to mach 4, this is not always a big problem, i just replug the usb cable and restart mach and it often works. On some occations Mach 3 or POKEYS? has lost the configuration , some axes are inverted, the motors are offline the emergency switch pin is unconfigured etc.  This is really annoying does anyone know a solution. Is there a way to backup the configurations?
A lot of times when i try to reconnect mach says that something is already using the pokeys device, when this happens i have to shut everything down and restart.

I have a win 10 system, can that be a problem?
is the network connection more stable then the USB?

Fixed it.

I ran mach4 in win 8 compability mode and used a network cable instead of USB, now it seems to work flawlessly.
