Mach 3 thinks I predssed e-stop when deskproto dongle attached .
« on: August 17, 2006, 04:45:54 PM »
Mach 3 will not run with my DeskProto dongle attached to the computer. The program thinks I hit the e-stop button. Also, Deskproto does not
recognise the dongle if my mill driver is attached to it. Anybody have this problem?

Try using a Printer A-B switch.

Or you can add a second printer port

I have another printer port but I guess deskproto doesn't know where it is and I don't know how to set the location in deskproto.
