Hi, Chris

I think you'll find a later/latest version in the latest release of Mach3 ver 2.48, It's ver is LC 2.47, I think these version numbers are messed up also.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Art & Brian

Ver. 2.47 seems to have fixed the start points / end points, extra rapids being left in.

Edit 09 17 07 Problem returns --------------------------------

The start points with Arc's outside the limits box still turn into circles though.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Art & Brian

Arc's are still having problems, In the view below.

After re-organizing chains, Rapids in lines seem fine.

In Arc's thy don't change properly and if you move the start point outside the limits box thy turn into circles.

Has been this way for a long time, Posted this several times.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Stan

Click on a Chain, It turns red, In the Info box below "Extents of Chains" there is a Tab button click on it, Enter Info.

Seems to work Nice Hear.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Jim

Click on your one chain, It will turn Red, Find the White/Yellow Dot/Arrow on the chain, It's probably under the 0,0 Marker bottom left corner.

Double click on it, A window will open up, Then you can change the direction, Climb Mill Box, Check or un-check, Then OK.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Hi, Hein

Try setting you Velocity & Acceleration down in Motor Tunning or Edit your G0's to G01, Your Z up may be slipping causing pos. loss.

Thanks, Chip

Hi, Mhickler

Look under Config Tab top left of screen, Click on Ports & Pins then Motor Outputs, Sounds like there all set to pins 3, 2, Set your Y to different Pin #'s.

Hope this Helps, Chip
