General Mach Discussion / Table freezes at end of X axis

« on: January 05, 2018, 01:46:31 AM »

My table is freezing near X+ end of table when running G0 X0, or G1 X0. I hit E-stop and reset and can jog back with no problems. Table jogs full extents of table in both + and - directions. It only freezes when running code. Any ideas about possible settings that could be the culprit or any ideas I could try would be most appreciated!  Thanks for any ideas you might have!

FAQs / Re: Should (Can) I buy Mach 3

« on: August 06, 2017, 05:35:19 PM »

I have my CNC Mill hooked up to a controller I built using a C10 board etc., it is connected to a PC running a clean install of XP with no internet connection in my garage. Can I run Mach3 under Windows 10 inside the house without the parallel port driver, generate the g-code, and then transfer the g-code with a USB thumb drive? Would this be similar to an external motion controller? Thanks for any help you can give me.
