I changed it and it did the same thing.  Also, I can't even run MDI commands, Dont know if that is necessary to know also or not. 
Thanks for the help also.

DazTheGas,
I'm not sure I am understanding you.  You want me to post my Machine.ini to this post?  Do you want me to post the txt from the ini or what?

Mach4 General Discussion / Lua: Error occured while opening

« on: October 28, 2015, 08:23:21 AM »

When I open my Mach4 mill it gives me this message.  "Lua:  Error occured while opening filecannot open C:\Mach4Hobby\Profiles\Macros\mc.Lua.mcc: no such file director"
I looked in the 6 axis profile, it opens just fine with no error message.  I took the mc.Lua.mcc from the 6 axis profile and put it in the 4 axis directory (because it is missing) and it deleted it every time I tried opening it. 
Anybody no what this means?

My estop is configured correctly and is working.  I have output control, ie spindle relays to c6 board turn on and off, coolant will turn on and off; my inputs work, home switches work and tool drawbar switches work.  The only thing that isn't working is the jogging.

Mach4 General Discussion / No movement from ESS plugin

I am trying to do some testing with Mach 4 but I'm not getting any movement when I select the ESS for my plugin.  When I jog on the simulator plugin it will move the axis DRO but whenever I try jogging with the ESS plugin it will put mach in a "jogging" state and won't do anything.  Any ideas??

Mach4 General Discussion / Mach 3 and Mach 4 Profile?

« on: October 27, 2015, 10:58:50 AM »

I want to do some testing with Mach4.  I have a VMC that I use for maintenance and custom work that has Mach3.  Can I put Mach4 on this machine using the same ESS board and go between Mach3 and Mach4 freely?
