I have a retrofitted Bridgeport Boss 5. I am using Bob Campells combo board with Gecko G202 Drives. Here is a link to what I'm using.

Whenever I hit a limit switch or E-stop, the drives turn off. In Mach 3 whenever I hit reset the combo board is getting signals and the DRO in Mach 3 continue to move but the Gecko drives remain without power. The only way to get them to turn back on is to reboot both the computer and Bob enclosure. The motors work fine unless limit switches or tripped or E-stop.
I've attached a copy of my mach xml
