General Mach Discussion / Ess will not respond

« on: December 07, 2017, 06:35:56 PM »

Alright,  I had someone accidentally unplug my computer when I was in mach and now when it restarted the steppers won't connect to mach3. My network recognizes the smooth steppers but it's not responding to Mach 3. Definitely getting 5volts on the board, I had this happen a while ago and I can't for the life of me remember the solution and I'm going crazy.

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 no fire torch

« on: July 31, 2017, 09:56:07 AM »

using mach3 with eagle plasma table and hypertherm powermax 65 everything worked fine and I had a power outage and ever since mach3 has been acting weird. If I run gcode it gets to M3 and tried to fire the torch, It will flick one time on the table and then stop, but if I manually hit the button on Mach3 screen it fires right up. any help would be great. I am new to this and bought the table used off a guy who kinda screwed me. thank you!
