Motor Tuning Dialog Not Appearing
« on: July 17, 2013, 10:19:45 AM »
I'm running an Ethernet SmoothStepper connected to a G540 and then to a Chinese 6040.

I have done the following:

1. Installed Mach3 on a Windows 7 machine and configured my settings -- all good
2. Copied the C:\Mach3 directory to a machine running Vista.
3. Start Mach3 -- jogging works, but when I try to open the motor tuning dialog, nothing appears.

What can cause the motor tuning dialog to fail to open? Are there any logs I can look at?

Thanks,
  Tom

Hi Tom,

Welcome to the forum.

2. Copied the C:\Mach3 directory to a machine running Vista.

This is not the best way to carry out an installation.

Re-install Mach3, from the installation program, onto the machine running Vista.

Thanks Tweakie -- a proper install was all that was needed.

Pleased you got it sorted Tom.

Don't forget to post some pictures of the things you make with your machine in the show'n'tell section http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/board,43.0.html  ;)
