Title: Mach 3 Dry test
Post by: daviddix2 on April 12, 2014, 10:06:52 PM

Hello, I would like to dry-test some g-code that I have with mach 3 on a computer that is not plugged with a cnc. Is it possible and if yes, how?

Thank you very much!

Just open Mach, load the code and press Start.
Toy will however have to first change the active state of the E-Stop output so Mach will come out of Reset.
To do that you go to Config menyu, Ports and Pins, Inputs and scroll down to E-Stop and change the active state. Once you have done that then you will be able to take Mach out of Reset.
