I just did a restart and now screen is ok. Another problem I am having is that it won't do a REF ALL HOME command!

I have recently upgraded from a previous version and I can't seem to get the Mach3 screen big enough. When I hit the maximize button, it only fills a portion of the display screen.

General Mach Discussion / start up message?

« on: August 01, 2010, 05:17:50 PM »

When I start Mach 3, I get two messages on my screen that never have been there before. " Plugin DLL Defective, Reload", and "X Box 360 Controller.dll, defective plug In Found..ignoring"  When I click OK on both of them, the program starts as usual. How do I get rid of these?

Thanks Graham for your help. I am somewhat new at this and have no idea how to work with a macro. Can you give me some direction ?
Thanks,

General Mach Discussion / help with program issue

« on: April 04, 2010, 12:11:36 PM »

I have a toggle clamp (manually closed and air actuated (cylinder) to open) with a prox switch on it that activates when clamp goes to open position. How do I use the input from the prox switch to prevent the program from continuing unless the clamp is open? I am using M8 with a 1 sec. delay and M9 to energize the solenoid that opens the clamp. The program (simpilfied) is something like this:
G0G90 G54 X1Y1
X1.5Y1.5F10
M8M9
X2Y2
M30
