General Mach Discussion / mach connection to rnr motion board

Hi power was cut several times to the rnr controller.  Port 1 disconnected during this issue now Mach 3 refuses to talk to the controller other than the spindle. Any ideas??
Cheers Bruce

Hi I have set up limit switches  in NO configuration on a 6040 chinese router. I cannot get Mach 3 to recognise the switches. I have tried many different settings in ports and pins without success. Machine has a Bitsensor bob HELP

Hi I have set up nc limit switches to a 6040 cnc with a bitsensor breakout board. Cannot get Mach 3 to recognise the switches. I have been through ports and pins a dozen times makes no difference. Connections on Bitsensor board are common to DCM and signal to in2. Hope somebody can help.

Sorry bit above my pay grade Spindle runs through a VFD. I have set up Mach 3 as per chinese instructions and it seemed to be behaving itself. It finished off the roadrunner. Now I cannot set the spindle speed just zeros all the time
