Mach 3 running G code fine but can not jog with the keyboard.
Ports-Pins settings must be right cause the G code will turn the motors.
Keyboard edits code so it must be working right.
The keyboard just aint talking to the motors.
Any ideas??
Thanks

You can only jog on screens where there is a jog On/Off button. That might be the issue?

That was a fast response. THANKS!!
UPDATE.... The DRO's will not move using the keyboard either. (using the arrows and page up and page down)

It certainly sounds like jogging is turned off, or maybe you are in MPG mode?

UPDATE: Looks like the MPG flyout is not working right (Press tab key it shows on the screen)
I get a Yellow LED when I press Shuttle Mode
No LED shows at Jog mode.
Where do I turn on Jog Mode?

To answer my own question after doing a bit of research.... Ctrl-Alt-J turns On/OFF Jog Mode.... Heck it is right on the dang Button under tool information duh!
Odd place for it but it is there.
