cnc stops :-(
« on: July 24, 2008, 11:36:50 PM »
hi all,
i recently installed a new tormach pcnc 1100. is run by mach3. it machines wonderfully until it stops. i traced the error to the g code. there seams to be a limit of 500 lines of g code that mach 3 will accept. is only
in the mach3 window that this occours, i can edit in notebook fine which suggests that it's loading.

is there something obvious i'm missing or is mach3 limited to 500 lines of g code.

has anyone else had this happen

Mach in demo or free mode is limited to 500 lines.

Check your license if you have one.

By the way are you from Avoca Victoria?

Glad that got things going.

I live in Geelong and am often in Melbourne.  I would love to call in one day and see the Tormach.

I seem to be having the same issues on my end too now and cant seem to figure out what to do.
I keep getting a limit of 500 of G code and I'm not using the free or demo versions. Is it possible for you to help me
out on this end so I too can get things up and running.
