I'm not sure if I have a config problem with Mach3 or my post
processor, but I'm sure this is the place to find out ;-).
There is a pretty simple file under files here on the forum called
Test File.tap. When I load the file in Mach3 it stops at line 159 -
which is line 161 in my editor - and reads "G28.1 Z5". This line
appears several time earlier in the file without a problem.
My theory is that it is a reference problem - my Z Axis DRO shows
something like 42". This a plasma setup and the Z Axis only has
about 8" of travel.
The second file is called KCroy.TAP and it will not load beyond line
967 - 969 in my editor - which reads "G02 X4.987 Y2.189 I-2.466
J1.351" I commented it out and it then loaded to 3484 - 3485 in my
editor - " X7.401 Y2.588 I3.408 J0.095", so I commented that out and
stopped at 3494 "G02 X2.538 Y2.354 I1.858 J-0.219". With these lines
commented, the file will run but obviously not a completed design.
I don't even have a guess on this one. My post proc. is set for
Absolute Coordinate values and Incremental I J for G02 G03 Circular
so I may have it configured incorrectly. I put my post processor out
in the files as Mach3-Mill XR-onecnc.
Some details on my setup - OneCNC Profile XR for posting, Latest
Mach3 as of a week ago, MP-1000 THC, and a DynaCNC table.
Any assistance in getting this final step of my migration finish
would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
