Title: TCP Lost Sync Error
Post by: hydevillemfg on October 10, 2012, 09:36:29 AM

Using a 2143, Windows 7, newer Mach3 plugin version, the controller is using to its own network card via a 5 ft crossover cable.  Running longer programs will eventually (usually around 40+ minutes into the thing) result in motion stopping and mach3 apparently losing connection with the controller.  If I open Smartterm and ask "TC", it tells me TCP Lost Sync.  I have to restart Mach3 to regain a connection, cannot merely press the "reset/estop" button.  Any thoughts?

Thanks!

There is indeed trouble with longer programs. It has been identified and a fix has been tested and found to work well. Please e-mail me at the address in the PDF manual and I can send you a build to try.
Cheers,
