Title: Maximum file size.
Post by: pedropin on November 06, 2012, 03:09:33 PM
Hi I have a problem.
upload a file of 275,250 lines of code. (10.2 MB). I click GOTO ZERO, the motors do not move well and lost the reference in all axes.
I click Cycle Start and the machine moves at intervals and the reference is lost on all axes. this does not happen when I use files of 2 MB.
To Mach3 Gcode size matter?
my settings
Gecko G540
10A 45V source
Pc Pentium 4    2.66GHz     1.25GB Ram
GeForce 7100 GS Graphics
motors 425 Oz-In
thank you very much

With large g-code files, you may need to turn off the toolpath display, as it's very resource intensive. Once you turn it off, everything should work fine.
