Mach 3. Yes jog is turned on. I hit the tab button. Mpg is selecting the correct axis and cycling through the increment selection as it should. Thanks for the input though.

and if you use the Keyboard arrow key's?

Its my understanding that the ENable pins do not have to be wired, but I could be wrong.

if i have a look to Manual of 4042 drive the enable is required.

Hi Dave,

i had the same Thing a couple of years ago, well without the self Fixing after 45 minutes.

the only Thing i noticed, when i watched my M3 macro with a HEX Editor was,
that the EOF() was directly behind the ")" of the DoSpinCW().

All i did was to put a couple of 'empty' lines (CRLF) after the DoSpinCW().

The Problem never came up again.

i really can't tel you wether it was

-coincidence
-woodoo
-or just luck.

i dont think it matters with this card what the pin settings are for each axis bc they have dedicated pins on the card. see page 3

i never trust this chinese stuff
