Hello to all
I have been a Mach 3 user for many years now and don't come on to the forum all that much any more this has been my first in many month's, i was at first thinking that this forum had gone away but after poking around found it. So what is the story here on Mach 3-4 i also see a new web site and style are former Mach 3 owners going to given a chance to upgrade or ?

General Mach Discussion / Pulsing

« on: February 19, 2013, 01:23:05 PM »

Hey Guys
So i was checking the setting's on Mach in my Machine and testing the driver i never saw this before but in came back saying i was pulsing the driver to high @ 35 and wanted to be @ 25 so  i set it to the lower number and went in to re-tune the motors but what i found was that no matter what i set the motor tuning to it did not change the speed so i set it back to 35 and now the motor's perform like they should question is should i be concerned about or just leave it alone.

Thanks

General Mach Discussion / Drives falut out

« on: September 10, 2011, 05:58:56 PM »

Hi Guy's
 I have a question for you mach guru's is there a way to stop mach feeding g-code when the drives fault out i hope i am getting my point across what happens is if the drives on my machine fault out mach keeps running the code and the part and now code won't match is i do a reset and run i have to try and set the start point and run the code until i get it to a point where i can check it's location then return to 0 make an adjustment and try it again it's a real pain thanks.
