I have inserted a screen shot of the button you are looking for. If this button is now where on your screens, you might want to back up your XML and any screensets or grabber profiles you have, uninstall Mach, delete the mach3 folder on your c drive, download and reinatall Mach again.

Mach isn't in an e-stop mode is it? Is the reset button led flashing?

I alos meant to say, on motor tuning, you should be able to retune them to faster than a BOB. You should be able to accel quicker.

Hey Carl,
     To enable or disable an axis with the G100, you could assign your axis enable pins, or one for all. You can use an output from the g100.
Everything is set as port 1.
For limit switches, use the pin for each axis labled LIM. They should be set up as pins 17-22 port 1.
For the inputs, assign them as labled on the G100 Port 1 pins 1-16
For the outputs, same as inputs. Assign them as labled on the G100 port 1 pins 1-16
For motor tuning, it is the same as standard except, you will be asked to flash to the G100 on exiting the motortuning page. To save your changes, flash the g100 and rediscover.
There is an issue for some using the homing routine. (To my knowledge, this is still a slight bug). The work around for this is to home each axis individually. You can edit the VB script in the Ref. all home button to do this.

I have sent you a PM

Carl, I considereed your suggestion, It won't happen. If you have a question, you should ask it. If I need to send someone a PM for any reason, I will. Would you like for all the e-mail and Skype chats that pertain to Mach posted herer too?

By the way, I have sent you a personal message.

Thanks for the replies guys, and the votes. I can't talk about what it will be or how many of what, or all you'll be getting, but it is certain to please the masses.

Do you have a wireless network on this PC? If so, disable it and see if it happens any more.

Your welcome Noel, glad you can run now. Still have a look for wireless network here. There are some settings you can force on the network that has to do with timing that may help you a lot.

Hey Noel,
   I don't recommend a wirlesss network set up for any PC running Mach. You can do a search here for wireless network and should get some info. about that. Lots of people run them with no problem. There are settings you can change to help. This may fix all of your problems but, you might be suffering from other network issues as well. I'm no networking Guru so hopefully one of those will speak up here too.
