General Mach Discussion / Re: How do you resume after a flame-out?
« on: December 07, 2019, 12:51:13 AM »
Craig,
Thanks for the response. My Mach3 is not responding in the way you described. When I tell it to 'Run From Here', particularly line 2690. It will start at the top as you described but will only traverse down to code 9 or 12. It is random at best. I have closed all programs and cut the power to basically cold boot it back up. I resorted to running the program from the beginning in an attempt to save the 4'x8' sheet of steel I have on the table presently. It made it past the original failure point but began "flaming out" again.
I don't think my torch height control is working. I'm experiencing some warping and the plate is no longer flat. My torch is supposed to sense these changes and move up and down but it is not. Regardless, I can't get the software to move to the failure point and begin again. This software is so intense and vast it is difficult for me to find even how I'm supposed to setup and run the program in the beginning. I admit, I'm just pushing random buttons.
