recently had a computer crash, not smart but did not have backup of my XML configuration so needless to say it's a start over. I downloaded the new version version R3.043.062 managed to get everything running again with the help of CNCrouterparts. I now have a few bugs I am not able to get rid of.
startging Mach3 all is normal REF all home all is normal, now I move to the MDI screen to move to a specific spot I am notable to employ any Gcode commands until I hit reset again. Now once I move if I move back home ref all home again now as normal the machine dro and the work dro does not aggree if I tryt to reset the work dro it will not reset. If I hit reset button then it will zero and we start all over I am finding to do most anything after I ref all home I need that reset button a lot. This just is noty normal from my old configurationn If anyone can help on this it would be greatly appreciated I have been working on this for a week now with NO progress

if I tryt to reset the work dro it will not reset.
Are you pressing the "Zero" button?

once loaded I ref all home then if I move on the MDO screen cannot move without reset. Once reset hit the buttons to ZERO still cannot move until I reset again then on the mdi screen I am able to put in cords and move It looks to be something to do with the DRO's matching or not matching it's strange to me

Problem solved not sure I understand why but in any event, my machine used two motors for the Y axis move one of the DRO's 4 was not getting reset at ref all home. Had to change the slave axis from Y-a to Yb and this solved the problem. I want you to know I did not solve this problem it was the folks at CNCrouterparts that solvd it with me. gret support any equipment I need will certainly come from them.
