ynneb,

I have been trying for weeks to get to the videos but continue to get an error finding the page.  I can only access the ModBus video with functional download and view buttons but all the others are a no go.  Do you have any ideas?  I have tried several computers on different networks and always the same result.

thanks
Keith Clark

Keith,
    Which videos are you trying to get? I will try to download them for you and send them to you. They are working on a video interface that should help with this.

Thanks

Sorry Keith, no luck. I will see if I can get them for you though. I could only view the scripting and turn intro. I couldn't download any of them and I could not view ins and outs. :(

Brett,

That was my problem.  I don't think anyone believes that there is a problem.  It does not seem like a high-traffic issue but I don't know for sure. I have tired all hours of the night and day.

Thanks for the effort!

I downloaded the video's but the one I wanted to use (newfangled) ihas an asynchronous sound, so the screens are faster the the sound which is very disturbing.
Has anyone a solution or is it really the quality of the video itself?

I get the same thing Andre and I believe it is the video itself.

Possibly you could post in the newfangled wizards area and maybe someone has a "cleaner" version of it for you-

LOL, I'll ask Brian which it is. Either he has encoded a messgage to "The Others" or he just coouldn't put Elmo down. I seriously doubt he will be redoing it any time soon. He stays busy as a one legged man in a butt kicking contest.  ;D

I actually don't think that one was Brian, was it? Possibly Ron Ginger?

I also posted about this some time ago....got some humurous responses but not much more. (thanks)

This particular CD worked well on all topics before my PC blew up. But on the new PC, Brians stuff is weird.....must be something to do with my PC but I don't know what.

Do you think I am missing a driver or something ?
Thanks,
RC

On an older post you gave an instruction screen to download video tutorials.  Would you please update this site address as I'm having trouble finding this ?

Right at the top of this very page.
Is this what you want ?

 Hello, I'm new to the forum and need a little help, I ran the drive test in the tutorial and it gave it a really good rating during the test. The problem I have is:
the line on the test, should it start at the top and work its way down to about 38 or start at that level when the test starts? there are also tight bunches of small wave that show up during the test, but the test program still give me an excellent rating? is that normal? I have tried the special driver bat file, but it stops the test from work, does not crash the system, the test just does nothing. I've looked for the program list talked about in the tutorial and have not been able to find it, is mach3 able to tune them out without disabling now? 

Thanks for the help
George

Hey George C, welcome to the forum. 

Is this what your looking for?  ftp://anonymous:guest@machsupport.com/ExtraInformation/Optomize.txt (ftp://anonymous:guest@machsupport.com/ExtraInformation/Optomize.txt)

I would follow that and use the PC as a dedicated machine controller.  Many use all sorts of programs on the control PC with great success but I would start clean and once I felt comfortable and confident everything was rock solid I would change or add one thing at the time and test 100%.  The optimization isn't as critical if using an external motion device like the SmoothStepper but still a good idea I think.  The simple fact is that some PC hardware and Mach just do not play well together and that seems to be more and more common making the external motion devices more appealing IMO.  But, if your getting a good clean driver test (flat line) and the test is saying its excellent then you should be OK as long as some other process doesn't randomly throw a spike in.
