Title: Only Continuous Jog works, not able to Step or Increment anymore.
Post by: Mueller on November 08, 2012, 03:44:08 PM

For some reason today I cannot make any incremental steps, yes, the Mach MPG is showing the Yellow button for step. (the flyout MGP one when you hit Tab)

I had configured a few of the number keyboard buttons for movement (#4 for X++, #6 for X-- , etc) Nothing has changed, when in the Diagnostics tap, I see the lights light up when I hit the appropriate key, just no movement for any of the 3 axis.

It worked fine for a few days, now nothing, only Continuous Jog works.

No external MPG hooked up until we have in our budget enough to purchase the Ajax MPG pendant.

With no external MPG, should all my MPG related Brains be turned off right now?

Bostomatic Mill,

Ajax Mach3 Plugin with GPIO4D and CPU10

thanks,

Mike

YOU will have to get with AJAX on that problem as their plugin takes control over MACH3.

I have an Ajax controller also. I'm trying to use joypad. All the buttons and everything work, except  jogging. Let me know how this progresses.
