  1. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    PROBLEM SOLVED.?

    I finally received a message from Mach Support and Newfangled saying that the .066 version of Mach3 has been causing a lot of errors so it has been removed from their website and...
  2. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    I'm using an ethernet connection to a Warp9 ESS. I haven't had any response from their forum.
  3. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    I just tried setting up a new profile. Still gives me an error.
  4. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    I had already tried that but I just tried it again. Still gave an error.
  5. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    Here is my .xml file. Change the dxf to xml.
  6. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    All the g-code *.Tap programs that I've run many times before with no problem now all give an error when the spindle shuts off. Here is my .xml.:

  7. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    In response to ger21:

    I replaced the m5.m1s in my Mach3/macros/router profile. I use one that was from a post on another website that suggested I replace all the spindle macros. I don't see a...
  8. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    Thanks for your response, Macteck54. My files have been generated for me by Artcam 2011. They are files that worked in the past. But when I ran them this week, they would get stuck on an arc. Adding...
  9. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    Thanks for your reply. I replaced the m5.m1s but there was no change. Then I replaced all the spindle macros: m3.m1s, m4.m1s, m5.m1s, M6End.m1s, M6Start.m1s,
    and spindlespeed.m1s. There is still no...
  10. Re: Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    It ends with a home move, M5, and M30. The program end doesn't really matter though, because it does the same thing if I turn on the spindle with a M3 and turn it off with M5 in manual mode. I tried...
  11. Mach3 Error when spindle stops DoSpindleStop

    The title should say "DoSpinStop". Not spindle. I am using windows8.1 with an ESS with Mach3 on a router. Has worked fine for 2 years. Today, program would start and run but just stop moving on an...

    OK. I'll try it. Thanks.

    I edited the button script on one profile and saved it under a different name but when I opened the other profile, the same edits were on its button. I only have the 1 mill screen that came with...

    I only have one computer with Mach3 to use on my 2 mills. Each machine has a probe pad that has a different height. I use a different mxl file for each machine but I am unable to edit the auto tool...

    Re: VFD spindle works, then doesn't

    This PM-940m-cnc-VS has an automatic oiler that is driving me crazy. It has a timer set to 30 minutes, and a run time set to 18 seconds. If the machine is powered on it runs, even if I am only...

    Re: VFD spindle works, then doesn't

    The relay wouldn't close until I tapped on it. The magnet wouldn't energize. When I tap on it, the Led inside lights up, I hear the click of the relay and the spindle starts. Could be a bad solder...

    Re: VFD spindle works, then doesn't

    The relays that are bad are OMRON MY4N-J. The coil wrapping says 24VDC. The case says 5A 240VAC and 5A 28VDC. It has 14 pins on bottom. Amazon doesn't seem to have them. I haven't found a supplier...

    Re: VFD spindle works, then doesn't

    You are right that these bad relays only control the forward and reverse. Both are bad so I'm looking for close replacements with the same type rail mount. I hope I don't get any sticks. LOL

    Re: VFD spindle works, then doesn't

    Well, this morning, the spindle wouldn't work at all. I had been thinking the problem would be with the VFD, but I decided to troubleshoot the old fashion way. I got out my meter and followed the...

    One other thing I forgot to mention: When I try to restart the spindle without rebooting the machine, the VFW led show the correct frequency that the motor should be running at. But the motor isn't...

    I have a PM-940m-cnc-VS with a Delta VFD015E21A inverter drive and 1.5KW 220v 3 phase 1720 rpm motor, Mach3 software on windows 8.1 with a nMotion controller card. The spindle starts and runs fine...

    Re: 4'x4' CNC plasma DIY project

    PROBLEM SOLVED. I finally got a reply from ROBOT3T. The solution to my THC3T-02 z axis problem was that it won't work if the z-axis step/dir setting in Mach3 is set to "active high". Seems like that...

    Re: 4'x4' CNC plasma DIY project

    I have installed the ROBOT3T THC3T-02 with step/dir on my Mach 3 machine but now the Z axis won't move. It just clicks slightly when I try to move it with keyboard commands. If I unplug the thc3-02...
