Axis Stops Processing GCode - Not Sure Why 6 Months, 3 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
I am test running axis with motors movinf and no material and it stops during the middle of a run. When it gets thru around 1005 lines of the Cut2D VCarve GCode I have it stops and goes no further. One time it stopped around 600 and a different time it stopped around 1200. I am not getting any fault msgs either. The file I am running is about 2400 lines.

After it has stopped and hung up I hit the play button or pause button and it goes back to the beginning of the file.

Anyone see this before?

Hi Highlander01,

Is there any link between a parallel port pin and halui.program.stop, motion.enable or something like that in your HAL file?

I'm having a similar issue where Axis just stops somewhere around 1K lines into a 20K+ line file.

I don't think its a hardware issue because I'm running the the 9 axis simulator...

I'm currently re-running the job with the TkEMC GUI. So far so good there.

Hope we can sort this out...

As an update to my previous post, I was able to mill my problem file with TkEMC. I guess that confirms that this is an issue somehow connected with AXIS.

I tried tkEMC, I still have the same problem right around the 1006 line of code. It is trial version of Vcarve I am testing. Maybe it has something hidden in it. I do not think so though. I am going to check a few of the other suggestions.
