There were not files names "M3.M1s" or "M5.M1s".  the closest file to your description was in located in C:\mach3\macros.  file name "m3" has "DoSpinCW()", and file name "m5" has "DoSpinStop()".

I know it's hard to trouble shoot from a distance.  i appreciate the time you've put into it so far.  it's way way more support and effort than the manufacture has given.  they wont even return phone calls

when i click the torch on button(1), the torch fires and the LED above the button (2) is turning on, as well the LED on the THC (3) turns on.  the issues comes when I try to run the GCODE.  neither (2) or (3) turns on for the M03 command.  If i turn the torch on with the button (1) while running GCODE it will fire and run like normal until it hits the M05 code, when it wont turn off.  i have to click the button (1) again to kill the arc.  everything else runs like normal
