General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3 won't move anything on my 3040t
« on: March 05, 2020, 10:19:04 AM »
Looking at the UC100 docs, a blinking blue and only Estop working appears to be a CPU load issue.
What is shown in the mach3 status window.. UC100 sync error?

Have you setup Mach3 with proper port/pins etc... correctly?

looking at the UC monitor window, can you see any of the mach3 functions working while using the mach3 control screen?

Newbie here.
I have a desktop cnc running Mach3 along with fusion360 and other design programs. carbidecreate etc...

Normal boot mach3 without gcode loaded and refhome, the machine runs fast and homes against the limit switches using the 20% speed.

When I load a gcode file from fusion360 and then do a refhome, the machine hits the limit switch at about 20% then moves far away from the switch and then slowly goes back to limit and then goes to some other point on the axis for home.
Works the same way on all axis.

I have tested a few gcode files made from other programs carbidecreate, etc. and the refhome works fine like it should and leaves everything close to the limits.

Is this something in fusion360 that is set wrong or something in the post processor that I need to change,edit delete.
I'm using the fusion360 mach3 post processor.
what should i look for in the gcode that might affect this.
is it the G94?

thanks
