i have had this machine for 16 years or so and over the years have had to replace the computers. and never had any trouble setting this up. but this time i can't get it to work correctly. I don't have a E-Stop button, so whenever it misses a step or a collision the previous computer setups it would throw the Re-set buton. now i can't get it to throw the resetl buton, it stops but dosen't throw the reset at all, i have to click the reset throw the reset , then click it again to reset. we have used AI a lot in the past 4 days and the answers don't help. anyone have clue what we can do.
this in on bare bones Windows 7 pro, it also has a smooth stepper Warp9.
i have downloaded the general settings on this site and we have went through it step by step

Hi David,

Mach3 will automatically throw the Reset when an EStop command is detected.
Missed steps or collisions are detected by the Taig DSLS which in turn sends the EStop command to Mach3.

In Mach3 – Config. – Ports & Pins – Input Signals - check that you do have EStop Enabled with the correct Port# , Pin Number and Active state. You may also need to check your ESS configuration to confirm that EStop is enabled.

Also check your Taig documentation to see if you are missing any other Input Signals that need to be enabled within Mach3 or the ESS.

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
it was the "Port Setup and axis selection"
did not have green arrows on the X++, Y++ and Z ++
so i have copied the Mach 3 folder to a thumb drive along with screenshots of all of the sceens that we setup.

Great news, I am pleased you got the issue resolved.
