I'm an extreme noob so please bear with me on my obvious ignorance.
I bought a 4 axis cnc foam cutting machine 2 weeks ago. The seller successfully installed a licensed copy of Mach3 on to my laptop.
I used to be able to manually controll the x1, x2, y1, y2 axis's with the w,a,d,x keys and the up. down, left, & right keys on my laptop. Now they no longer work.
What went wrong?
Also, I started cutting a block of foam with my laptop controlling the hot wire cutter and Mack3 software. I had forgot to plug in the power supply to the laptop, so after a half hour the laptop quit and I had to reboot it with the power now plugged in. My problem is the hotwire is still inside the block (turned off). How do I restart the hotwire to continue to cut the 23 shapes I had loaded into Mack3's to originally start it?
