No movement with gcode
« on: November 19, 2012, 05:22:33 PM »
Hello all, I have had my machine running mach3 nearly flawlessly for almost 1 year!!! But I have noticed a problem that seems to be getting worst with time. Every once and a while when I go to my cord zero"G00 G54 X0 Y0" in MDI the machine wont move. I end up having to restart Mach3, then rehome and all works fine. I get no errors, following or others. I can jog the axis with the arrow keys and MPG, but when I type in MDI it wont move.

I have DC servos motors with the DSPMC controller from Vital Systems.

Please help if you can!

Thanks,

Aero

It is likely a probl;em with the DSPMC and possibly the Mach version you are using, have you tried a different version of Mach?
One thing to try is if the MDI stops working is press reset then try again or maybe even reset interpreter, thats on the settings page far right at the bottom.
