I do use a UC100 motion controller. In the past I have seen where the Mach will not detect the motion controller and require restart. However, I will see an error when that happens. Here is something else that was strange. I upgraded the lights in my shop several months back and caused me all kinds of damn issues. It was so bad I had to take the lights down. Lol. But this problem has kinda stuck around since the lights removed.
It does this on every second code if that makes sense. Meaning from every restart it will be the second pass always.
Question, if I run my first pass and let gantry come back to zero. Should I be able to move z position up and down for bit change? My thinking is yes I should be able to. This is when it goes to crap. Let's just say I'm using a compression bit. I can do both passes and will not have a problem. It's only when I manually move z up to change bit for second pass. If I use same bit like a compression it's fine.
I know that is confusing. Just really trying to explain problem. Tired of dealing with it.
