    Charge pump shutting Down

    Has anyone had any problems with the charge pump or Mach 3 driver shutting down.

    IF I start a machine and start a job I have had the software just stop outputing to the parrallel port. I have to stop mach3 and restart it to get it going again.

    If I stop mach3 and restart it will never die again.

    Are you still having this problem? I have/had the same problem. I talked to tech support of the sellers of my BOB and they said I should get a Smooth Stepper. It came today! Said it was most likely caused by electrical noise or the computer I am using. Ethernet version of the smooth stepper. What BOB are you using?
