General Mach Discussion / help in setting up needed for a noob
« on: September 03, 2010, 06:48:34 AM »
hey guys
i am very new to all this and cant get my homemade cnc machine (with a Toshiba tb6560 and motors bought of ebay) working on mach3. i have tried to follow the video tuts but still no joy so heres what i've done.

first off the wiring for the motors black to A+, green to A-, red to B+, blue to B-, if this is wrong can you please let me know as i had to search the net to find it (the ebay seller tried to be helpful but really didn't know their wears).

second i have put all the inputs into mach3 parallel port address, Hz, motor outputs, input signals, and output signals.

i then press the RESET button in mach3 and everything goes well in Diagnostics page

i then load gcode of roadrunner and then hit CYCLE START button and everything starts on the program but nothing happens with my  motors

any help would be great please im truly stumped and have been trying to get it working for a week now

cheers
Ben

LazyTurn / lazycam with Alam3d dxf
« on: July 28, 2010, 06:44:43 PM »
hey guys
im new to CNC machines and very new to mach3 and lazycam. i've been trying to import every simple Alam3d dxf files (one was just a cube) with no joy i just get an UnRecoverable Error in EndGLDraw1. Lazycam then locks up and i need to exit with End Process tree through Windows Task Manager. has anyone had this happen to them or do they use Alam3d (im new to that too my main 3d program was Art of Illusion but does have dxf export). as i said earlier im new to the hole thing but got mach3 and lazycam with the stepper motors and drivers off ebay

thanks in advance
Ben
