General Mach Discussion / Machine loosing Coordinates
« on: February 26, 2007, 09:23:22 AM »
Hello,
I am a new user to Mach 3 and am running a CNC router with it. I am trying to run a 3d lofted part, but the machine continually looses it's coordinates.
I think that Mach 3 looses contact with the router, and then catches back up, while it has lost contact the router seems to be in a free roam motion and then is reigned back by Mach.
The part is then off by nearly 1/2" in any given axis.
Any ideas?
One time I know it was the screen saver turning on, I have since taken care of that and all the power settings.
I need help fast!
Thanks,
John
