Title: Elapsed time stops counting
Post by: kak on January 17, 2020, 12:53:42 PM

Hello.
I don´t remember when it started, but the timer stops counting while cutting, not affecting anything else, but it would be nice to see the time.
I have been cutting the same toolpath 8 times today and the counter stoped after 03:42, another time after 03:45 minuttes.  About the same time every time with that code, but I can't se any suspicious commands in the code. 
I have been cuting 3 square holes, one gcode, and the timer stopped between cutting the 2. and the 3. square. Why not between the 1. and the 2. square?  It's doing the same thing.
Sometimes it stops cuting other gcodes after 45 minuttes, different time every time. 
Is there any theatment for that?

Hi,
is your copy of mach3 licensed? I'm wondering if it has a 500 line limit like that of Mach3 Demo.

Thanks, but yes, it is licensed, about 10 years ago.

I would be interested to know if there is a solution to this as my timer does exactly the same thing.  :(
