Hi had a quick look to the Langmuir Homepage.
Looks like you have ordered bündle (table + cutter) from them.
they are still selling this combination.

have you talked to them, about this Problem ?
i am pretty sure ist is a earth/grounding Problem, because if it is a Controller Problem,
they would not sell this combination any more.

basicly USB and Plasma cutting is not the best combination, Ethernet would be better,
but if the layout/wiring/groundig is ok, you should get it to work.

if you want to go the "VB script" road, you have to remember that there is only one Task (script) witch is running continious
(macropump). and this macro has a 10ms timestamp (theoreticly).
Brains are a lot faster but  there Comes the external Controller into the Focus.
i never had something else than CSLab Controllers, but with them the update of Inputs takes 10ms as well.

I also purchased the system set-up to use Mach3 USB Controller

USB Controller makes me a Little "nervious",

sorry my fault, not tested

Code: [Select]

Open "C:\Mach3\Lasterrors.txt" For Input As #2 ' Open to read file.
Do While Not EOF(2)
Line Input #2, FileData ' Read a line of data.
LineN_1 = LineN
LineN = FileData
Loop
Close #2
SetUserLabel(151,LineN_1)
SetUserLabel(150,LineN)

don't know a possibility to Show more than one line in Standard errorlabel.

but you can run a small code in macropump and Show Messages N and N-1 in two userlabels

Code: [Select]

Open "C:\Mach3\Lasterrors.txt" For Input As #2 ' Open to read file.
Do While Not EOF(2)
Line Input #2, FileData ' Read a line of data.
SetUserLabel(151,GetUserlabel(150)) ' save message N-1 to userlabel151
SetUserLabel(150,FileData)                ' save message N   to userlabel150
Loop
Close #2
