Mach4 disables after probe
I use the probe function for tool touchoff on a Artech router. The tool touches and resets like it's supposed to but Mach disables once it touches so I have to hit the axes limits override button and manually jog it off. The reason we put this controller on was the factory controller wouldn't do an in- program tool change. . .

the CNC did not connact to the softwear
I just purchased the SNC machine, and instal everything as the catalog said.In addition, I downloaded Mach3 that it supposed to to be contacted to NVUM mach3 Card. I tried to connect it to the computer, but nothing work or move.I'm new to this filed. if someone can help me, I will be appreciate.
Cursor keys move machine, even when Mach4 is not active app
Perhaps this is a feature, but presumably something that can be disabled?When I have Mach4 running, if I use the cursor keys in other apps on my computer (eg, web browser, PDF reader), the machine moves.It's like Mach4 has "captured" the cursor keys. This does not happen in Mach3, this is the first time I have used Mach 4.
