Hi
 Seems there is a lot of interesting "Flags in Mach###, however ,as in my cases, MY Fault,,,.
Had an interesting one .Tool # tool large ?
Well , I had wanted the machine to "start from here".As it was ,I got impatient and restarted,
well, Mach### was correct ,was doing what I wanted and would not accept another tool
# or offset ! WOW,  what a great system !!

I cannot get anywere near that,end burns up,vib,noise,etc.
1/4 or less maybe for O.D. depth, feed rt.
Machine is B.P. retro/2 hp.apx,52 IPM.feed.

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / Unsure relays/mach2/3

« on: January 19, 2007, 05:26:08 PM »

Hi all,
am wondering why my machine blows "main" fuses if main power is turned "on" before computer is "on" or for that matter "off".
if i start computer (XP) and then energize Power&BOB things are fine . If I turn computer off first (shutdown Mach ) then
I loose 2 of 3 fuses. ? is I think I have the motor (3ph440) hooked to the relay outputs (M3 to one relay & M4 to another
and works fine ) and maybe I should change the "Hi" to" Low" ?   
Thanks,
 Bear
