General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Estop triggered when spindle stops
« on: August 14, 2022, 06:16:18 PM »
I've been have a issue for the last 3 month that randomly started and I can resolve, previous to this it was running great for 6 months.

I use Veteric aspire form my tool paths and to generate my Gcode, I use the ATC arc for my post processor.

When the tool path is complete the spindle is supposed to stop for the tool change but it doesn't it just throws a estop alert, not every time but 90% of the time.

I have to turn the VFD off and on then I can continue.

Ive tried turning the debounce up, its currently at 4000 but am out of ideas now.

I'm running windows 10 and mach 3 R3.043 (can confirm this tomorrow when in the workshop)

Tempted the do a reinstall mach 3 maybe something has become corrupted (I am quite clueless in windows used Macs for the last 15 years) or maybe reinstall the whole system?

any help will greatly be appreciated

VB and the development of wizards / Auto tool zero
« on: January 24, 2022, 06:42:58 PM »
I've downloaded the CNC nuts script and I'm struggling to get the script working on my machine.
The digitize light flashes when the bit contacts the plate.
When I press auto tool zero and touch the plate on the bit to start, it starts to probe but doesn't stop when it makes contact.
Do you know why this would be ?

Im using Mach3 R3.043.062 and a AXbb-E controller

If the ports and pins setup was wrong would the digitize light illuminate when I test it?

General Mach Discussion / Mach3 Uc300
« on: April 26, 2021, 05:51:19 PM »
Hello all,
Im new to the world of CNC, and find the learning curve rather steep.

I have spent the whole day trying to get the home/limit switches and Estop working on my setup.

My setup is windows 10 running mach3, using a digital dream uc300 controller via USB.

I think it’s all configured right but I can’t get the switches to switch.
In the diagnostics windows they are on or off, ticking the active low in ports and pins makes it go off but no switching.
Anyone have any ideas why?
Its almost like its not seeing the inputs.

Any input is greatly appreciated.
