Title: Spindle wont turn back on.
Post by: Bhohbein on July 22, 2015, 04:43:44 PM

Hey guys. Me again. Getting the bugs worked out of the new to me machine. Its a 07 shopmaster bridge mill.  The spindle turns on when i start a job but if theres a proble and i stop it by hitting the stop button or estop and try to restart the spindle wont come back on. Is there a setting or something that i need to check. Thanks for the help.

I am presuming the spindle is started with an M3 command at the beginning of the Gcode. If you stop and then re-start the program run you need to click on the Spindle button (or use F5, or other methods etc.) and allow the spindle to run-up to speed before clicking on Start.
