General Mach Discussion / Re: Problems threading on the lathe
« on: May 25, 2009, 10:24:45 PM »
I put the borrowed computer and smooth stepper back in the milling machine and now that I have updated it to the latest version of Mach and the latest SS plugin it now loses communication with the ss about every 5 minutes just like the lathe. I have never had this problem with this machine which often stays plugged in and on for days at a time . Considering its doing the same thing now that the software has been updated as the lathe that the issue must be software related. I am pretty sure I have eliminated all the other variables by swapping SS, cables, mouse keyboards, machine, computers, full format and reload on two diff computers etc and now the problem exist on two diff machines.
