Hi, Ventuseu

Should have asked you to post one of your G-code files with the problem or dose it happen with any G-code you run.

Ver. 3.042.020 seems to run hear fine, But I "don't" get the "Note: Cycle pause in effect.. No jogging or Reverse!!" message in the status box that you getting.

May be something in your version supplied by Candcnc.

Hi, Marshall

Post an example of your dxf with the font and symbols issues your having and I'll take a look at it.

Thought that you had resolved the pierce issue.

Hi, BFales

If the values shown in the att. Pic are 0 then you will not see movement, Do a Driver Test in C:\Mach3 folder and double check your Port assignment in Port's & Pin's also, Let us know what you find.

Hi, Helitool

There are more output's (20) total, I think and if you run out of pin's you could add a 2nd printer port (port 2) or Smooth-Stepper.

You can Add the Led's to Diagnostic screen with screen4 (screen) Editor.
