Title: Mach 3 Charge Pump & Screen Problems
Post by: dneisler on September 12, 2007, 10:24:50 PM

Ok, I have a Win XP system that was hooked to a sherline setup and worked perfect. I sold the sherline and upgraded to a X3, Geckos, and a C11G BOB.

#1 Trying to get Charge pump to work, I can turn system and controller on and nothing, I can click Reset and the Charge Pump light on the BOB will flash. I can click it again and it will flash again. I can go into the settings of mach 3 and set the charge pump to 5khz and the light comes on and works. I can then turn it off and it continues to work.

#2. I have a screen set loaded, and everything I shut down and restart mach 3 it set to the correct screen, but the size is all messed up.


What am I doing wrong?

You may want to talk to Mr. Duncan at CNC4PC about the charge pump. He is good to work with.

On the screen sizing, in Config, General config, do you have the auto screen enlarge check box checked?

Ok, if I leave the charge pump set to 5khz it seems to work fine. Does this sound correct?

I did have the "auto screen enlarge check " checked. I removed it and it seems to be working.

Doesn't sound right to me, but as long as it works.
