    Hotkeys not working

    Hey all, I don’t know if I can quiet explain this, but here goes. My pendant hotkeys for the x,y,and z are not working. The pendant is working properly, and you can program it to the hotkeys screen, with all the inputs working as advertised, but the axis’ will not move unless you use the Mach “tab” pendant. It worked before, and it works on my other machine, just one day stopped. I have looked to see if there is any activate/deactivate hotkeys, but I haven’t found anything. Short of reloading Mach, I have no idea what to do.

    Check if you are in MPG mode or jog mode.

    You know, I checked that, and I didn’t think about it till you said something....it wouldn’t let me select between increment, continuous, and mpg on the jog mode......none were lit up

    Then jogging is turned off.

    Note that jog hotkeys will not work unless there is a jog on/off button on the page of the screen you are on.
