Sorry I have been offline for a while, cannot find anything wrong with the programme. Have linked up to another PC and the machine runs through the programme without a problem. I am still a little puzzled as to why I have the problem with the other PC, Is it the PC?
Thanks for your thoughts on the problem much appreciated.

ThanksTP this is what I thought I have been through all the settings on both pc's and the check box for dwell has not been checked on either. so I am confused as to why the cutting programme is dwelling.

I already have one machine controlled by the Mach3 software which runs without any problem, this is run throuh a HP desktop PC.
I used the same compressed file to load programme into a Dell desktop PC, Mach3 programme loaded fine.

I duplicated all the settings from the one that is running fine, double and triple checked.

I created a programme using artcam software, created the G-code file. Loaded that file into Mach3. Clicked on the start button and the machine responds to the commands, until it gets to line 997 of the G-code file then the Dwell light flashes on the Mach 3 screen.

No message comes up it the message box at the bottom of screen.

Swapped over to the HP pc and the same G-code runs fine.

Hope there is enough detail for you, and many many thanks for your reply.

I am having a problem with the Mach 3 programme, I start the programme and it runs for about 2 minutes and then the programme dwells. I am not able to continue any further into the cutting programme. Has anyone got any ideas on why this is happening, it's driving me mad.
