2 axis running
« on: April 04, 2006, 10:59:46 AM »
Hi all,
I am a newbie and I am running Mach 3.
The problem I am having is to do with runningĀ  2 axis together, I am using the soft limits only at this time, and if I run for instance x and y together using my cursor keys and X axis reaches home first Y axis stops also and, will not start again on the first press of the button on the key pad all I get is my motors growling at me, but it will move OK on the second press of the button this happens no matter which 2 axis I run together. ???
Can anyone tell me what the problem is.

Kind Regards

Bill S

This is a problem but it is a known bug :( I will tell Art about it again but I think there is a problem that makes it so it can't be fixed...

Thank you

Thanks Brian,
I downloaded the latest version two days ago will it be in that one, I will not use it until I get used to the Lcam side of things, I had a problem with Lcam the other day, on the tool path screen in Mac3 it showed anything but what I had put in, So until I am confident with Lcam I will leave the new version alone as far as my main program is concerned.


Kind Regards
