General Mach Discussion / long pause on tool change in simulation

« on: November 27, 2008, 09:58:03 AM »

OK i have a little problem with the simulation mode i don't know if this is normal but is there a way to change the wait period on tool change in simulation when mach3 hits a line with a tool change it can wait sometime for an hour of simulated time before going on with the simulation. so a part that should have taken 1hr will take 4hr in simulation mode

« on: January 16, 2008, 11:14:01 PM »

ok i have posted this on cnczone but i said to my self this is the mach forum after all

ok i just bought a kit from keling i did the setup and rechek it on the phone with the guy from keling and he says that all is hooked up properly and that my trouble is with mach3 and the pc
so here goes
pc spec
athlonxp 2400+
asus a7n8x rev1.04
1gig ddr 333
40gig hdd
radeon 9800pro 128mb
winxp pro sp2 with all current update

mach3 the latest trial
cnc component are
1x 48v/7.3a psu
3x kl6050 driver
2x 495oz 4leads motor
1x 640oz 8leads motor
1x c10 bob
as for the 5v required for the c10 its connected straight to the computer 5v line wich read as 4.95v on the multimeter

currently i have only one motor hooked up and the shaft lock when i turn on the setup
now port&pin are set for the x axis to step2, dir3 as for step and dir active low is enabled, port for step and dir is set to one and i have enabled e stop as it says in the info and vid tutorial
now here is my problem the motor wont move
i currently have my lpt addy set to 378 but strangly enough when i go in the resource tab of my lpt port i have two addy there one is 378 the other is 778 but my mobo only as one lpt port the guy from keling think my problem might be there what do you think and does anybody have or had a similar problem

edit: forgot to add in the bios the lpt port is set to ecp/epp 378/irq7
