General Mach Discussion / Re: Still having a problem with mach 3.
« on: March 11, 2013, 06:33:58 PM »
Hi. Brett. Now here is the interesting thing. i tried for two days to figure out what I'd done because at the time i think I simply changed a value in alt 6.( At the time that is literally what I did. Changed one value and it worked.) I even completely re installed Mach 3 again. But nothing solved the problem. Now last night I discovered that Mach stores a number of previous sessions and No. 19 worked. when I loaded a file of the photocarve face I had saved the machine crosshair co-ord skimmed across the image in a short amount of travel as it should. At this point I made sure I saved my settings. Exited Mach and reloaded and loaded another file of the same image( I had had a few goes) and the problem was back. Found the file that worked before and walla! it worked. I have no idea what is happening. You would think that the problem should not be with the vectric evaluation software. Thousands of people must be trying it. But also the same thing was happening to me with the included things to make that came with my Mach 3. So it has to be the Mach program somewhere I would have thought. Is there a parameter that changes the scale speed that the crosshairs pass over an image in relation to the machine travel??? Other than all of this the machine follows any input commands no problem. Trouble is the stuff I am trying to do is exactly what I bought the machine for. I need to make some product to make a living out of it. Nothing is ever simple when it comes to computers I guess. Thanks Brett. Any help is appreciated. Regards....Ron
