M40 / M41 touch probe not working.
« on: January 29, 2021, 06:59:03 AM »
Hello everyone, this is my first post here.
I tested the touch probe by writing the data to a text file, but Mach3 stops working after the M40 entry and dont write a text file.
The UNCNC manual states that it is supported. Why not also with mach3?
Thanks.

C:\mach3\macros\your Profile Name

wether ther is a M40.M1s and M41.m1s file.

Hi,
I have used, some years ago now, with Mach3 M40 and M41....and they work. As TPS suggests check to make sure that the
macros code exists in your installation of Mach3.

I have used Mach4 for six years now, and there is an equivalent M40 and M41, and I use them daily as part of my
PCB isolation routing process.
