Can you look in the macro folder for the profile you use and then copy and zip the spindlespeed.m1s macro and attach it to the forum.

sorry for taking so long been away- looked for that file and found it, not sure how to upload it but will try. I copied the file before zipping and had a look via notepad, now I know you should may not be doing this, I dont know how you look at these files officially? but it has not alot in this that I can see. your thoughts.
Bob
hear we go for the upload
p.s had to rename it bobs

Ok what to do is open Mach then go to Operator menu then VB Script Editor. In the window that pops up go to file and open then browse to your profiles macro folder and open the spindle speed macro. You will see
rpm = GetRPM() SetSpinSpeed( rpm )
It should be on two lines like
rpm = GetRPM()
SetSpinSpeed( rpm )
Save it and hopefully you will be fine.

Hi,
I have the same problem, but I already edited my spindle speed macro and still get this error.
Anyone could help me please.
Thanks
-
What version of Mach?
Hood
-
R3.042.020
-
And I have a Laptop with Mach3 without installed drivers, on it doesn't show that error, I have already put the exactly same configs on my PC that control the cnc and still show me this error, also, doesn't show me the complet toolpath draw.
-
You will not see the complete toolpath if it is over 500 lines and you are not licensed.
I think updating Mach may help with your spindle speed issue as it seems to have been an on/off issue over the years.

Hi,
My mach3 is licensed, I have run more that 1500 lines without problem. I will update to see.
Thank you.
-
Update done and still the same problem. Any ideas?
Thank you
-
attach your xml and I will see if there is a problem with it.

I have this two profiles, both do the same problem.
-
This too
-
Both of these xml's show that Mach is running in demo mode, so either you do not have your licence in the correct folder or your licence is corrupt.

I bought this CNC with computer and mach3 installed, the guy told me that he had bought a license for mach3.
-
Mach Licenses are owned by the person that purchased them and can not be transferred to another, whether that is with a machine or separately.
