XP 64 bit?..if it was 64 bit it wouldnt move the gantry. Hard to say what the issue is but if you can fire the torch from mach 3 you may be in the clear. If Z home lights up when it should it may cut fine. Your system may not recognize those pins for DTHC online. It happens maybe one out of 50 pc (s).
According to the DTHC manual, when put in test mode the DRO for volts is suppose to go to 100 and the UP flash 5 times then go to 150 and down flash 5 times. Since it does not do this, I dont think the system will cut!
Also in the manual, if this does not happen its specifically states that the probable cause is serial communication issues to the PC
I just tried different Serial and DB25 cables with the same results.
I just noticed that there is a THC on/off button....but it doesnt do anything. Is there a setting that would allow me to turn that on?
Edit> is it a licensing issue...actually come to think of it after re-reading you instructions for the software, I never had a license to drop and drag over like you say
Edit again> My Mach is still a licensed as a Demo Version. I DO NOT have anything in my Mach folder regarding a Mach3 License. The only thing I have even close to referencing a license is a notepad doc about lazycam license.
Matt since you gave us the setup disc back in like December when we ordered the ganrty kit is there a way we did not recieve the license? If this is it I just got OWNED big time and wasted half my day....LOL!
I mentioned that it was hanging up and making a little noise when it goes down. I thought it was cause I was lacking the torch and holder and the slides were a sticky. Well we put the torch and holder on and it is worse. As you can see from the video, the Z will actually stall out when you rapid down with joystick. If you go slow its fine, and there are no issues with up travel. Any ideas?
