I have another question.  While reading the manual that came with the 1842 card it said it does accept binary commands.  (Chapter 4 page 41)  Is this a miss print?  or is it true.

Thanks again!

Thank you for your help,  one more Question about firmware for the board.  This board was purchased in 2001 and never used.  Should I update the firmware to the latest version?

I have a 1842 galil board.  you mentioned a slight delay in processing the ASCII will this be very noticeable in the operation of the control.  The version 7 driver? I see several choices on the Galil website can you give me some guidance as to which one will be best for this board.  Sorry for the basic questions but I am just getting started with the galil conversion.   Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your responce. I decided to sleep on it and try again today.  I noticed that there was a comment line at the point where the failure accrued after removing the comment the problem went away.  the comment was inclused in (...)  so I don't know why it did this.   Can you tell me if why?

General Mach Discussion / Control Run away

« on: November 18, 2009, 10:07:59 PM »

I am having a strange problem.  I am using XP Pro. Running a CNC router with Mach 3 I used NF wizard to program a Rectangle the control runs fine it jogs, homes and has run some of the other files "road runner" etc.  Today after programming and posting  I started the program setting the z 0 high to test the program.  The control cut three sides and then went nuts.  I jumped around in the Y and X axis in rapid moves.   The toolpath tracked the movements.  The Code looks normal.  no od rapid moves in the program. I am running a dell P4 .  What am I doing wrong.  Thank you
