Wanting to upgrade mach 3 to a newer version
« on: October 14, 2021, 08:57:55 PM »
My mill is using an older ( licensed) version of mach 3.
It seems that it's  around a 2010-2011  year edition. At the time of my retrofit, it was the latest edition.
It the past there was a few problems where the spindle wouldn't  reverse in auto tapping, etc.
What would be the latest upgrade that some of you would recommend?
Right  now I don't have the info on the computer that is running the system.
 That can be provided tomorrow if necessary.
Thanks in advance.

Jack

Any ideas where I can download a  newer version? Not necessarily  the newest, maybe something around 2013???

Tweakie,
Thanks  for that  info.
When I searched Google,  it just showed the latest version on several host sites.
Will let y'all  know how update goes.

I think you will find that Version R3.043.062 is the best one to use.
