Today I discovered that if I pulsed the X axis with the xbox controller I could get Mach3 to freeze in about 3 quick pulses (around 1/2 sec pulse). Power cycled, and repeated the test. Did this a total of 3 times. In all 3 test cycles, I got Mach3 to freeze in about 3 pulses.
Hi Rick,
There is little future in looking for Mach3 problems just for problems sake and I think the only real answer is "if doing that causes a problem then don't do that".
Because Mach3 'is what it is' and is unlikely ever to be revised or updated in the future the way forward may be to move on to Mach4.
Sorry to be blunt but there are so many little peculiarities with Mach3 that we probably all have our own set of workarounds and we just learn to live with the animal.
Tweakie.
