General Mach Discussion / Re: Cannot use tw0 gcodes that both use axis line 30

Hi Pudly123,

Your Gcode is not correct (as far as Mach3 is concerned).
 
Basically the G28 has it’s own feed-rate and you cannot have a G00 on the same line.

Delete the G00 from lines N154 and N156 and insert a new line N153 G00

Can you zip and attach the problem Gcode.

Hi Pudly123,

The G20 should do it.

However, try some of the files in the zip folder here (I have tried them all and know they are OK) http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,18345.0.html

Excellent.

Some are here for the journey and some for the destination but it is certainly a hobby where we just don't stop learning.

Hi John,

Make sure you have properly extracted the zip file that was sent to you. Copy the file  Mach1Lic.dat  into your Mach3 folder.

Sounds like power saving features on your PC.

Check that nothing on your PC goes to sleep or into low power mode etc.

Hi Peter,

Are you using USB or Ethernet connection to the 57CNC ?

Hi Jokim,

It has been a while now - why has your website not been rebuilt ?
If you wish to keep the plugin free why not post it as a zip file for others to download from here ?

General Mach Discussion / Re: Which tutorial to use?

« on: October 24, 2017, 07:34:24 AM »

Not quite a simple as it appears to be. 

There are many variants (or clones) of the basic CNC 6040 so you may just have to try all the set-up options until you find one that works for you.
