I have not be able to get this system to work since I bought it. This is a link to the first time I reported the problem. I have upgraded windows since then and the type of error has changed.
https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=41710.0Problem: At the start of a program the THC sequence begins...the torch moves down, the probe is active, the torch moves up. and then the sequence is aborted.
This happens "almost" every time. Sometimes it will fire the torch and immediately shut off the torch and abort.
Other relevant details. -The probe signal alone seems to work fine. If I activate it, both Mach 4 and the controller board light up.
-Even if I turn off the THC on the panel it runs the probe sequence but continues to push into the plate requiring e-stop to quit.
- I had to create a different profile in Mach 4 to test everything else. It runs the gcode and cuts the plate without a problem setting the height manually.
-Attached are screen shots of computer specs, the last sample G-code etc.
Things I have tried. -Restarting everything
-GCode with only "M03" inside it
- Double checked the wiring.
