General Mach Discussion / Need Estop Output

« on: December 28, 2014, 12:08:41 PM »

I need a way to have an output go active when Estop is triggered. As far as a I know, all outputs are turned off when Estop becomes active. If I define Estop Output as active low  then I suppose I could set an unused output to active high. When Mach is running the output will be high and when it Estops is will go low. This also works for when Mach is not running because it seems that my parallel port has all its outputs set to high upon system boot (something I would like to change if I could figure out how). What I would really like is for there to be a way within Mach to do this "officially".

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / NFS Wizard not showing as licensed

« on: February 10, 2010, 06:25:06 PM »

I purchased the NFS Wizard and Mach Support emailed me the license file which I copied to the Mach3 root directory. I can open the Wizard and do whatever I want and then post the code. However when I click exit to Mach the code window shows "Unlicensed Wizard File" with no G-code. Is there something elase I need to do?

« on: October 07, 2008, 09:40:11 PM »

I have an SS board and I was using 2.63 but per the www.warp9td.com I need to use 3.041. I uninstalled 2.63 then tried to install 3.041 and I get an error message that says installation failed. I tried several more times with the same result. Any troubleshooting ideas? Thanks.
