Mach3 Features You May Not Know You Have...

This video covers two features you may not have even known you had.The Maintenance tracker in Mach3, and Debounce settings which will provide you the most stable system possible through adding a defined type to wait for a switch signal to be valid.
The Debounce feature is an amazing feature for troubleshooting, and also for even stable systems as added security with stability.

Great informative video as always! Thank you for these, honestly. I am trying to learn as much as I can and your channel is one of the absolute best. Greetings from Bulgaria!

Vince your awesome im not sure if you remember me but you steered me in the right direction a few years ago you pointed out stuff i never would of even thought of about EMI interference noise after chasing down what you explained to me on my cnc plasma cutter i managed to clean things up lil by little and finaly nailed it and got my machine running more productive than it ever has in the past . anyone out there reading my post the key thing is educate your self's on the system your using and remember if you dont know something ask or read up on it theres no such thing as a dumb question thats how we learn . id like to know the stuff that Vince has forgot about lol... with that being said Thank You Vince for helping me sincerely Bill in Nevada

I am having an issue with mach3. It pause the machine for a second in mid of a job and resume again some time it pauses and instead of resuming, machine moves in wrong direction and crashes and it happens very often 😢.

And if you want to used the LPT printer port on a newer mother board, ASUS makes a Work Station Board line that has a 26 pin riser pin out on the Mother board and you can use a 26 oin ribbon cable from the mother board directly to a Breakout board or threw a LPT female to male socket.

[@ODGuitars]

Hope you are seeing this: thanks for the video, How do I check my system for Hz, how much it runs at? thanks!

[@corvetteguy50]

OD Guitars, thank you for your support. You must click on CONFIG button, and then PORTS AND PINS button to review the Hz of how fast your system is running. These buttons are located on Mach's opening screen as reflected in the video. The top left corner. Thank you, Vince

[@ODGuitars]

Thanks I'll check it out! :)

[@moussabenzaoui7060]

dear sir i would like to know if Mach3 can adjust a metal sheet in cnc plasma without adjusted it by myself. for example, if the sheet is inclined with respect to the Y axis, in this case can I identify two points in the Y axis, to tell the softwor that the sheet is inclined

[@corvetteguy50]

Moussa, thank you for your support. Mach3 can't achieve this by itself. What you'll require is known as a torch height controller. Its a piece of hardware that adjusts the Z axis height automatically based on the warps in the substrate your cutting. Thank you, Vince

Sir when supply is on then brake is aplied on stepper motor .how can we remove

[@corvetteguy50]

Thank you for your support. This depends on the integrated brake its using, and you didn't supply me any details of the motor you're using. Typically the brake is activated when a set voltage isn't present going to it, and inactive when it receives voltage through either a separate power supply, or a power supply with separate voltage rail to support the brake. Thank you, Vince

Salvation please Mach3 does it have a scale function to increase or decrease a drawing if so how to adjust it I made drawings in mm but during machining it is a larger drawing that I see on my board

Hi. I have this issue with my cnc that whenever i start my dewalt table saw, the cnc stops. Then i have to reference it again resume the program where it stopped. I was thinking of installing a surge protector. Now that i have seen this video, i was wondering if debounce function can help with this issue.

[@TheStoryist]

You have EMI sir, and the electrical noise generated from your table saw is interfering with your CNC. Did you use double shielded cables as you should have? Vince I'm sure will help you.

[@corvetteguy50]

The Stroyist is correct. Thank you for your support. Once I know if you're using the proper double shielded cable, and the shield drains are properly grounded I can work from there. A surge protector will do nothing for you. Thank you, Vince

[@kaeshur92]

No I don't think so.

[@kaeshur92]

I should mention here that this problem happens only when the DeWalt table saw is turned on. We have other equipment in the shop, planars, spindle moulders etc. all three phase. But they don't seem to trigger this problem as far as I have noticed. Only happens when dewalt is switched on and that too when the spindle is running and cutting. What I mean by that is if the cnc is cutting something, say along a line, now it has to cut a different line for which the spindle needs to lift up move to that line, come down and start cutting again. If while cutting, the table saw is switched on, nothing, cnc keeps working just fine. Now when the spindle moves up, traverses to a different point, comes down, and the table saw is switched during this short interval, then all hell breaks loose and cnc stops.

[@saeidyousefi8001]

Dear Sir for 25000 HZ this rates is good [100-4] for Debounce settings?

[@corvetteguy50]

Saeid, thank you for your support. 25,000Hz is for slower PC's an usually offers the most stability. If your PC is newer using an Intel I5, or I7 CPU I recommend 100,000Hz. Debounce settings are arbitrary based on attempting to get your system stable. The best way to set them is to start with a small number, and increase from there to see if the system attains stability. Keep in mind if it does using this setting your system has EMI penetration which should be corrected with proper system grounding, and double shielded motor cables ect. Thank you, Vince

Sir, could you kindly help cause Mach3 dont permit motor turning value input (Erro found art code 9991)

[@corvetteguy50]

David, Thank you for your support. Please uninstall the software using this program www.revouninstaller.com/ (the free version) for a complete uninstallation, and then reinstall it. Make sure to copy your system's settings down first, along with users license. Thank you, Vince

[@IEraiderfan]

A very good in-depth video I have been using Mach for over 7 years and have never noticed these settings. I am a hobbyist using Vetric VCarve Pro and an old Dell XP what would be a good upgrade. I have had my PC worked on a few times new HD now it is acting up again my PC guy says it is on its last days. Thanks for the video tutorial.

[@corvetteguy50]

Lou, Thank you for your support. A computer with an Intel I5, or I7 processor, and at least 8gb of DDR3, or DDR4 will offer a very smooth stable system. AMD makes some multicore CPU's that will work fine as well, but I simply prefer Intel. Thank you again, Vince
