You're very welcome, and yes, for some weird reason you can never have the same name twice in this forum. I've also never seen this before, but I guess they may have their reasons  ;)

And I'll take that Bud, I've been a busy man this afternoon!

This is because every attachment that is posted, must have a unique name for this forum to accept it. Even if you refresh, you will end up in a never-ending loop. Just stop, and repost with the attachment with a unique name.

Check to make sure the jog on/off control is set to "on" the screen you have showing.

Don't forget, if the jog on/off control is not on a screen, the keyboard will not work for that.

It really is that simple but you must be sure the spindle is not insulated or it won't pick up the contact from the cutter tip. If it is insulated, you can just ground a cable to an alligator clip and attach it to the cutter itself to create the circuit.

Also, don't forget to enable the probe in Ports and pins in Mach.

Or, you could always play with the screen designers and add your own  ;)

Hi Wilfied,

I've contacted Graham here on the forum for you as he's a GCode Guru, and will possibly be of some help to you.

Does ArtCAM have a post Processor for Mach3.

Eric,

This is something that ArtCAM will set you up with for your particular machine.
