Hi JollyCNCuser,

You must consider that we are (for the most part) unpaid volunteers here so please be patient when waiting for a reply to a question posted on the forum. 

I have never had to use formula axis correction so can't offer any help in that direction.

However, if you are having an 'out of squareness' issue then the best solution would be to correct the inaccuracy of your machine. If, for some reason this cannot be done then it may be possible for you to use the Local System Rotate function. If your squareness error is constant then just entering the angle will provide the compensation.

I tackled a changeable or unknown squareness issue using a similar solution http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,22932.0.html

Hope this helps.

Can you describe what is happening in a little more detail please.

Is Mach3 code execution just pausing or is the program locking-up ??
Has E-Stop been triggered ??
Is there any message in the Status window ??
Do you have a license or are you running in Demo mode ??

Hi Gaute,

Your licence file is called    Mach1Lic.dat    and it is stored in the Mach3 folder.
The license file can be copied and transferred to your new PC.

Your existing license will not work with Mach4 - you will need a new license for that.

Hi Gaute,

Before you start, make a backup copy of your whole Mach3 folder.
Install the earlier version of Mach over the top of the existing installation (no need to uninstall anything).
Your license file will still be there in the new installation.
Copy your profile .xml file (typically Mach3Mill.xml) from your backup to the new installation.
(If you have modified the 1024.set screen then you will need to copy your modified version to the new installation - same with any macro's, brains, plug-ins, etc.).

Hi Resonance,

Are you using the Demo version where backlash comp. does not work and a licensed German version where it does work. ??

Sorry to say this but the symptoms you have described exactly match those of a blown laser diode.
