General Mach Discussion / Re: Activating new limit switches on mach3/Gecko G540 CNC router

You need to set-up your limit switches in Config / Ports & Pins / Input Signals (Enabled, Port#, Pin Number, Active low) for each axis.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Need info to run Mach3 with windows 10

« on: December 04, 2023, 12:53:44 PM »

ive attached a pic of what it looks like

I am using the same board and a few minutes ago I downloaded the latest Mach3 and installed it.  The driver came with the board and connected OK so I started to configure Mach3.
Everything seemed to be working fine until I tried tuning the stepper motors.
After making a small change just to test, the program showed an error and then crashed out.
I tried several times and it happens each time.
I uninstalled Mach3 and reinstalled again, but the same happens as before.
I am not even able to test if the software will work for me or not, and the board I have bought is dedicated for Mach3 USB connection.
Any ideas what I could try to overcome this problem?
 The error message says art code error 9991

As that board looks very much like the STB4100 you could try using the RnRMotion.dll

You need to copy the NcUsbPod.dll into your Mach3 / Plugins folder.
You can download the .dll from here; https://www.cdxhctech.com/html/edownloads/220.html

Which motion controller are you using ? (ie. what is attached to your USB cable).

In Config. / Ports & Pins / Input Signals - check EStop is enabled, if so toggle the Active Low state. Does this solve the issue ?

Perhaps post your problem GCode so we can take a look to see if there is a problem.

Not quite sure just what you are hoping to achieve here but, from looking at your Vectric generated GCode, you must keep in mind that Mach will blend each axis federate so that they each arrive at the destination (specified in the line of GCode) at the same time.
If you try to speed up or slow down any one axis movement then it will affect the speed of the others so that they still all arrive at their destination at the same moment in time.
