i have reinstaled mach 3. i got my missing motor tuning back . i have redone the back lash settings as it seemed to have something to do with this. it did much the Same\me thing, it moves slowly on pressing a direction key, the distance is always the same . it then moves to any distance on comand but if i Change direction it crawls back stops then can be moved in jog g1. i have found if i an tick the backlash i can be jogged and moved with no problem. then after moving it a bit i re tick the box and it moves taking up the small amount of backlash. i have checked the accuracy of the moves back and fourth with g1 and its fine. i have run a couple of small blocks repeatedly and have no probs. after homing and setting the tool. i wont know if it will require the same to get it to run next start up. i have another problem with the g code generated in bobcad. the drawing looks fine and the post looks good but when i load it in mack3 i have the generated code it the graphic and when an arc is in i have lots blue circles mixed in. the machine tries to copy these and screws up. bit depressing. i run a full size mill with bobcad and fanuc 6m post. i have tried the Mach3 post but get Heep's of OD ball graphics. the best i can come up with is fr fanuc 10t post.
