General Mach Discussion / Re: How do you resume after a flame-out?
« on: December 07, 2019, 12:51:13 AM »
Craig,

Thanks for the response.  My Mach3 is not responding in the way you described.  When I tell it to 'Run From Here', particularly line 2690. It will start at the top as you described but will only traverse down to code 9 or 12.  It is random at best.  I have closed all programs and cut the power to basically cold boot it back up.  I resorted to running the program from the beginning in an attempt to save the 4'x8' sheet of steel I have on the table presently.  It made it past the original failure point but began "flaming out" again.
I don't think my torch height control is working. I'm experiencing some warping and the plate is no longer flat.  My torch is supposed to sense these changes and move up and down but it is not.  Regardless, I can't get the software to move to the failure point and begin again.  This software is so intense and vast it is difficult for me to find even how I'm supposed to setup and run the program in the beginning.  I admit, I'm just pushing random buttons.

General Mach Discussion / How do you resume after a flame-out?

I am running a plasma machine.  Midway through the burn the plasma stopped firing and continued on the G-Code path.  I stopped the machine and reset the Plasma machine.  I have identified roughly what line of code it encountered the error and would like to restart the program a few lines of code before.

I am new to Mach3 and can't seem to figure out what buttons to push to allow me to do that.  I have tried to enter the code line number and tell it to begin from there but it just scrolled down to line 9 and stops.

If i could be pointed in the right direction or told where in the manual this is discussed I would be greatful.
