Mach3 and G-Rex / Re: mach 3 control app acting wierd on my s7

Hi John,

I think the OP is referring to his phone.

It is really not to be recommended;  https://openbuilds.com/threads/control-mach3-with-your-phone.406/

My name is Steve Graves and just bought a cncrouter pro 4896 with nema pllug and play 23 to use with router, plasma and hopefully laser when i learn the system. i am using mach 3, inkscape and looking for a good program to write gcode. i just got the machine where i can jog, manually put my machine in home where if you are looking at the machine it is at the rear , right corner and z also homed and zeroed all axis. and moved the machin to center of table and hit re all to home and the y went 2 different directions or the slave locked up dont know could use some help. if i need to put this in another post i will just let me know what is the correct way of doing things.

H Steve,

Welcome.

Unless they fall into a specific category it is best to post any questions as a New Topic in the General Section.

One of the best free software's for Gcode creation is F-Engrave;  http://scorchworks.com/Fengrave/fengrave.html  and one of the best paid software's is Vectric;  http://www.vectric.com/  but there are lots of others out there to choose from.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3 for Large CNC Router Table - or Not?

Going a bit off topic but when Art wrote the Tempest planner and incorporated it into Mach Quantum I think he expected it would migrate into Mach4. Unfortunately it never happened but it was a good product and Art then went on to use Tempest in his current laser control software Auggie.
When I use machine control software incorporating the ‘S’ curve acceleration / deceleration it makes me wonder just how the ‘bang-bang’ trapezoid system has been accepted for so long.

Mach3 under Vista / Re: Need Direction for what to try next.

« on: June 21, 2018, 01:39:53 PM »

Hi Nick,

Try downloading and installing (over the top of your existing version) the latest Mach3 version (R3.043.062);   http://www.machsupport.com/software/downloads-updates/

This patched version may resolve the problem.
