You should be able to get it from OneCNC... They have been good about that in the past

That is odd... try changing the active low state of the step pulse and make the step pulse a bit bigger...

That is the first test

You will need to have a longer index pulse... that would help

Do you have the problem if you turn off the toolpath (on the diagnostics page)?

If you can find a way to break it every time we can fix it   I will keep an eye out for that problem..

Chip, I didn't tell anyone but there are a few more words in the posting word list. You and a few others are the only ones that have made posts for Lcam and I just wanted to tell you. I will be making a Doc for posting but it will be after we are done adding to it.

Have fun guys and keep telling us what you need
Brian

you could make the code with VB... have a look at the wizards and have a look at the Mach2 customization manual.

That will show you how to make code with a VB button on the screen... I think you will like

You will need to do the following

G28.1 Z.5 (move to .5 THEN home)
g00 Z.5 (now move to .5 AFTER you have homed) you need to have this move added
