mach3 jog mode disabled for mdi input
« on: July 20, 2013, 11:02:05 PM »
Hi, recently I have started to get a message "mach3 jog mode disabled for mdi input" whenever I try to enter instructions into the MDI input box. Obviously in my playing around I have altered something, but can't determine what it was. Can anyone help resolve this please?

Thanks Hood, although I dread to think what you may find in there as I have been "playing around" with the system for some time now... changing screens, new macros etc.
