Mach3 under Vista / Mach 3 stop mid job
« on: August 27, 2020, 07:02:24 PM »
Hi there everyone,
I’ve got an issue that drives me nuts. I’ve dealt with it for so long and I finally want to fix it.
Windows 7. Mach 3.
About 1 out of every 8 jobs, my job will freeze randomly. Never more than once per job. Mach 3 freezes. I can’t press any buttons, I can’t jog, I can’t do anything. So I take a picture of the screen, restart Mach 3, reprogram spindle locations, add “run from line” and pull up the last line and I continue from there. usually, this works and the job continues in the same position as it would have. However, sometimes it will be off about 1-5mm, and the job will actually continue in a different spot and the job is ruined.
Does anyone have any recommendations to trouble shoot?
No words to describe how much I would appreciate.
Thank you!
Alex
