Hello Fellas,

I have a weird problem with Mach3 (v1.83.027). It started with not recognizing all the G-Code produced from Mastercam X4. I had been running several g-codes produced the same day from the same configuration. I just broke the job up in pieces. and then the router would quit in the middle of the project and just hang. I noticed in the toolpath display that the entire toolpath was not displayed. When I tried to scroll through the code, it stopped scrolling in the middle of the code. It would just highlight a random line number and stop. I rebooted the system and tried to rerun the code again, and this time it displayed correctly and could scroll through the entire code, but stopped in the same place as before in the job. OK. Loaded a new code for a different job, and it wouldnt run at all. I rebooted again. Now the DRO's indicate movement but no motor movement. My external estop no longer works either. I tried running the driver test and received the following;

Int used = 00
APIC Present light = lit
CPU Speed = 1700
APIC Timing Constant
Timer Variation area = Nothing, no indication

Then the test ends stating "Mach1 test complete".

Anybody have any ideas?

Thank you in advance,

Wayja

I am stumped. I checked ports and pins and didn't anything unusual.
