General Mach Discussion / Crash & Recovery Mach3
« on: March 17, 2011, 06:26:04 PM »
Hi All,
Computer went down the other day. Restored my back up and installed 2nd parallel port in XP machine with updated driver. Set up 2nd PP hex address in Ports & Pins and Device Manager says its working. The Charge Pump light won't come on in the THC panel and no movement on motors. Manual says if CP light is not on there is usually 2nd pp issue. Any ideas, I need to get this going. I believe the old comp was Win2000 OS. All the saved Jobs are there as well as my last motor velocity changes so I'm guessing the program is intact. Just changed out computer and 2nd port.
Thanks,
H

Is there a way to run Mach off LPT1 only and disable the THC so I can cut some parts?
