Third party software and hardware support forums. / problems with mach 3 and v-varve pro 5.5
« on: June 06, 2010, 11:47:01 AM »
Hi guys, just a few troubleshooting questions about v-carve pro and mach 3.
I have recently finished completing my 3 axis cnc milling machine but now am stuck on some software problems (building the thing was the easy part, but now learning to use the software's really getting me frustrated)
I am running a trial versions of v-carve pro and a trial version of mach 3. I have set up my machines xyz limits and fully calibrated it. My problem is that, when i create a file and tool path in v-carve and export it as a mach2/3 .txt file, only some of the project actually shows up in mach 3. I have tried creating a file with less then 500 lines of text (as i am aware that the trial version of mach 3 only allows 500 lines of text) but no luck. If anyone has experienced the same problems or if someone knows what i am doing wrong, your help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I have included screen shots of my project in v- carve pro (exact file uploaded into mach)
and my tool path screen in mach 3
