Re: Electrical Noise
And mine is this one:

For all I know this is causing a problem during homng.
E-Stop, Fault, ERR/RST, and "Charge Pump" timeouts turn off all outputs without assistance

Re: Electrical Noise
Hi Dave,
I have a PMDX-126 which is optically isolated for inputs and the control outputs. The Step/Dir are not under the assumption that most drives are. In my case they are.
The problem has

I have been following this thread but not carefully because I didn't think I had a problem. Now I am thinking that some minor drift I have over time could be missed steps not mechanical as I

Re: Electrical Noise
Just tried that. And the problem with working on these types of issues is what I just ran into. I set it to 10x40uS. Quit. Restarted MACH3 and homed over a 4" distance. No problem. Perfect.

Re: Electrical Noise
have you tried the debounce input setting in general config? had a similar issue long time ago and debounce cured it. don't remember what I had to set it at but it worked.
haven't used Mach3 for quite

Re: Electrical Noise
In mach3 config> general Config in the top right corner have you tried to increase the debounce time. If not do not increase it too much or you willoverugn the limit switches. But also your plan to

Re: Electrical Noise
I went into the config page and checked the 5kHz charge pump. The only repeatable failure I'm getting on a regular basis is when I home the Z axis.
Here's what happens:

Re: Electrical Noise
What will that do? Easy to try but I'm curious what you expect to see happen.
Thanks for the feedback.

Re: Electrical Noise
Sometimes making a problem worse provides the solution to the issue at hand. In Mach3 go to config>general config and on the right side clcik on the box for 5KHz for laser. See if that provides any

Re: Electrical Noise
Hi Martin, Peter,
I'll check. Status on this part of the project is that all appears to be working even if not exactly the way I'd like. I still have to cycle the ENABLE button on the MACH3 display

Re: mach3 reset not working
The green light only indicates that you have 5V from the USB hub to the uc100. The LED on the other side is a blue LED that is on when the UC100 is initiated and starts up from Mach 3. If you don't

Re: mach3 reset not working
I had this happen as well. I went into config and unchecked the box on UC100 and rechecked and all was back to normal.
