New to CNC and having problems loading gcode
« on: October 31, 2015, 07:03:11 AM »
Hi I am new to CNC and I'm having trouble loading the gcode from my Cut2D to Mach 3.  When I load the gcode into the Mach3 it doesn't load the whole thing only part of it!  What am I doing wrong or could there be something wrong with my software?
Much appreciate some feed back please.

Hi Rob,

I am guessing that you do not have a Mach3 license - in Demo mode Mach3 will only load / run the first 500 lines of Gcode.

Hi Tweakie,
Ghees I knew it would be something as simple as that!! When I bought the machine I was told I had everything I needed to work 'fully'.  Should have read the small print me thinks.  Thanks ever so much for the prompt response, very kind of you.
