    Re: Mach 3 does not recognize home position.

    Hi Scott,

    Yes the jog commands work. I can jog in both directions and at varying speeds.
    great. Next check if KMotionCNC | Tool Setup | M3 M4 M5 S Actions are configured to use the Correct Jog Programs. Post a screen shot.

    What happens when you enter M3 S500 in KMotionCNC's MDI? Check for anything printed on the KMotion.exe Console Screen.

    Re: Mach 3 does not recognize home position.

    Hi Tom,
    I have attached a shot of the tool setup. Kmotion is acting real erratic. I entered the m03s500 and it worked. Did so a couple more times and it worked. Ran a program with M03 in it and it worked. I then changed to M04 and tried to run program and it was ignored. Reinitialized and tried again and the spindle started and ran to full speed and tripped out the drive. Tried the M04 from the command line and it started but only ramped to 4 rpm.The only message I saw on the console screen was following error when the drive failed to start. The x and z axis always work right. I did try the speed slider when the m03 worked correctly and the speed varied like it should.
    Thanks,
    Scott
