Title: Mach-Galil forgetting position
Post by: AMorris on September 06, 2016, 01:18:37 PM
Hello, I was having trouble yesterday with stopping and not getting to the correct position. Setup is Mach 3, Galil 4163 and the 4.6 Galil plugin. I gave x19 f150 and it travelled for a distance then stopped way short of 19. It did this several times after working correctly for almost 2 hours. I could enter another MDI command for X and it may or may not go to the right place. I tried giving an M5 after entering another long 19" move and it stopped short of 6" and then shut the spindle off. I am sure my DMC4163 is good as I can run loops all day long and it never fails but Mach seems to cause issues. I forgot to mention I have it connected through ethernet. I have played with the plugin settings and even went back to the recommended defaults from the manual. Ant help is greatly appreciated.
