    Re: Touch off plate for z axis

    You can start from any tool number, and can call m6 from the toolbar, or MDI as well as g-code.

    I tried m6 without any programs after initial auto zero but it hanged after reaching tool change position
    What version of Mach3? 3.043.022 will hang, due to a bug in Mach3

    If you have a large file loaded (>200,000 lines), then turn off the toolpath display.
    If you have a small file loaded, then your PC is not powerful enough.
    The 2010 screensets larger toolpath display uses more resources than the default Mach3 screen.

    Re: Touch off plate for z axis

    You probably need to add an M3 in your G-code, after the M6.
