FAQs / Re: Mach 3 only loads half of the gcode

« on: June 01, 2015, 12:42:49 PM »

Hi, Another new guy,
I am having problems loading demo files on mach3. it only loads half the code. Initially I thought it is the demo thing, so I bought a licence, My name shows up when I check in mach help menu. So it is licensed. Still the problem is there. So I uninstalled and re installed, no joy, still only loads half a file. What can the problem be. One of the files in question is the collet spanner file that comes with mach.

Did you purchase your license direct from Artsoft /NFS or from somewhere else ??

Mach3 under Vista / Re: axis rhythmic noise (like a knocking)

I am pleased that you got it sorted. 

(I think it is not the monitor, just the resolution you have selected within the graphics card.  )

Hi Andrea,

If switching off the toolpath display resolves the problem then I would suggest upgrading your graphics card. Those with 512 MB or 1GB memory have now become cheap enough to obtain without breaking the bank and it should then let you switch on the toolpath display without causing problems.

A very interesting thought indeed Terry.

My opinion is that because all our machines and potential applications are different we all use Mach3 in a different way – for my part I only ever use a fraction of the available resources provided by Mach3 yet it does all (mostly all) that I want it to do.

I certainly like Rich’s idea of a super-duper screen set where we could just dump all the screens that were not of interest or use in a particular profile.

Tweakie,

Any chance that because i am trying to run this on Windows 7 64-bit it will not work?

Indeed, there is every chance. Mach3 does not support 64-bit operation via the parallel port.

Papa Fabio.

Unfortunately, that is a fake license.
