I have just started using Mach 3, my cnc person installed the program with my cnc, I started playing with it loading some of my old G code programs from Type 3, my y axis was off so I went in and did the motor tuning, told it to move 12" and it went 24, so I told the computer this and it automaticly correct.
So now I loaded an old g code cut a couple of 4" tall letter R's GREAT.
Went to creat a new g code, went to down load the g code, it would not load. now I am for no reason having major troubles some alot of my g-codes are not loading at all, and my motor tuning is being thrown way out of wac, I tell it to move 12" and it goes a 1/2 an inch.
Has anyone else ever have this problem? and if so do you know what is up?
-
If they don't load, is there an error message?
Does the G-code use G20 and or G21, and are you're native units set correctly?
-
There is no error message, and I believe the native units are set up correctly.
Even g-codes that worked previously now are not importing at all. No Codes listed at all,
-
Post your xml file and also one of the code files.

Ok,
Here is the G code along with the xml file,
prior to this I was using a chinese version of Type 3 that came with my router and then cutting from NC Studio. and things were working.
Now I have went and purchased Router Type and cutting from Mach 3, the only thing is I am having trouble getting things to Jive.
