Figured it out this morning! Thank you for your help! It was the PCI Card in the computer. It went bad, replaced it and it works perfectly.

I do have e-stops and limit switches.

The E-Stops stop the whole machine so I know that they are not a problem.

I examined the limit switches and they all seem to be fine, no broken wires or anything like that. Maybe one of them is bad.

How can I tell if the machine has a connection to the computer? is there any way to test that? I ask this because I still get this error when I disconnect the computer from the machine entirely. Could it be a bad board in the computer?

I have had my router (Cam-Wood) for about 2 years now and it has been functioning perfectly. However, today I was running a program and the computer froze up. When I rebooted the message said External EStop Requested. I have unpluged power to everything and restarted and still get the same error. I don't know what else to do? I have unplugged everything blew it out and replugged it in did not help.

Thank you,
David
