Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Mach3 problem

Steve,
 
Yes, I can't find anything in the configure menus regarding this.   I will probably reinstall and see what happens.

I know nothing about how to configure Mach, but my understanding of the
problem is that on one machine, the warning light never comes on, and on
the other he can change when the warning occurs by changing the default
contouring mode. Unless there's a setup option to disable certain
warnings, this is unexplained behavior.

Of course, I'm boggled that it would be considered anything to warn you
about in any case, since the G-code in question explicitly sets the
contouring mode.
