What am I doing wrong ?  When I import g-code from makercam the image is nothing but a big blob of pink. I go toolpath and it is the same, do cycle start and it goes around in circles. I have watched video's ( oldgeezergeek ) did the same albert jpg., followed all the same steps andstill ended up with a blob.
I own Mach3, is not demo !!!!!

Help

Also how do you make hot topic ?

Ok, here is a link to my controller photo's.

Take a look and see if I have any options other than buying a new control box

sorry about that,can't type either

Hi Chuck,

not sure I understand the problem but...

Go into Config. / General Config. and change the IJ Mode. Then regenerate the toolpath. - does this resolve the issue ?

Yes, finally, thank you so much

If I could - the short instructional manual states that it should be in mm, does this mean the machine will operate in inch. I am using Mach3 and when I try to cut it is about a 1/4 in square

If your machine is set-up in mm and you run a Gcode which has been prepared in Inch units then add G20 to the start of the Gcode file. This will then run the file with the correct dimension.

Ideally all Gcode should contain G20 or G21 (as appropriate) as part of the initialization string.

And as you have discovered, all Gcode files containing arcs should also contain G90.1 / G91.1 as appropriate.

Tweakie.
