Motor tuning
« on: June 19, 2013, 04:12:47 AM »
Hello .

Can any body help me? I have had Mach 3 demo on my computer for a while and I have my stepper motors running on a geko 540. this all works but my maximum speed on my steppers is about 100 rpm. I cannot open the motor tuning page so bought my licence and now when I open Mach3 the window says Mach 3 Licenced. I still cannot open my motor tuning page. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Buchanan

Try renaming the plugins folder to Old Plugins then make a new folder called Plugins but dont put any plugins in that folder.

Hood,
Because O comes before P and Windows will use the first file in the hierarchy that it finds.  :P

Nah, I just get Brian to add bugs every now and then so I can look good when I say how to fix ;D

Hopefully it will help, has in the past but sometimes not.

Than you every body.
I next lost the standard mach 3 screen so reloaded every thing and all is back to normal so I am not certain what happened.
Hood, I am sorry that I cannot say that your alphabetic correction worked,I would like to have.

Thanks

As long as it is working thats all that matters.
The method I mentioned above is purely to stop plugins interfering with Mach. Renaming the folder was so that you did not delete the plugins just in case you needed some later on. Making a new, empty  folder was because Mach needs to see a plugins folder, it doesnt matter if its empty or not but if there is no folder Mach will throw errors.
