General Mach Discussion / KX1 with Mach3 not talking to computer
« on: September 22, 2017, 09:13:10 PM »
Hello
We have a KX1 with Mach3.
Have taken advise from Tweakie.cnc Downloaded and installed Mach3 and extract file from Mach3.xml and attached zip folder. All the motor and ports & pin file is there.
Now when we try to contact the mill through key board to move X Y Z there is only a chick noise from mill and no movement.
Does any one know what may be wrong?
Cheers

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 in KX1
« on: September 21, 2017, 07:29:19 PM »
We were told not to have the mill computer on line. is there any way to download information and copy to disc and put on the computer the mill is using? 
We have a KX1 using Mach3, 25 pin cable between Mill and Computer. The Mill has not been used for two and half years. lost part of fingers and now want to start milling again. Cleaned all of terminals with electrical cleaner.  Computer hard drive went, had a new one fitted and now have know idea how to set up the config section, motor outputs and input, output, encoder/MPG's  Spindle and mill options.
We do engraving and mill aluminium holes so on.
Is there some where we can get a list of what X.Y.Z pin to use what motor settings (tried to set motor, only got it go very slow and made crunching noise) None of the key board functions are working.  Up, Down arrow keys.
Pretty sad when we have been using for 6 years and have know idea how it works. :C
Cheers
