If your system is ON and the GREEN light is on the control box after you press the green button and you get this error try cycling power. From there you can look at any hardware changes that you made. Wireless keyboard and mice are typically a no no when you get over 65amps with a hypertherm. It may work but also may not.

Something else I just noticed is when I load g codes from previous projects that cut succefully they are now missing most of the cut paths in mach3. I checked the projects in sheetcam and all the cut paths are there. Could this be a software problem with Mach3? I dont know what else to do. Thanks Gary

Take your wireless out and delete the wireless program and start over. You made the hardware change to the system you need to roll those changes back and see if that fixes it.
