move and jog erratic after upgrading software need help
My desktop is moving and jogging in a very strange (uneven) fashion - the only thing I can think of is the software...
I haven't been using the CNC for a few months but back in April, i downloaded and installed shopbot control software 3.8.4 - they say it was a major upgrade. I updated my computer but since I was non connected to the CNC, I did not run it.
Today, I run the software and went through the control box firmware upgrade and all that. When I tried a few Move and Jog it moved very strangely, uneven and Noisy - someting's wrong. I went to the shopbot website and found the 3.8.6 update, so I tried it... more of the same.
The weird thing is : it moves fine with the [SK] dialog (from the keyboard) but move and jog are not working right.
I uninstalled everything and reinstalled all, same behaviour.
Anyone got any idea ?
Trying out 3.8.8 version... not soo good.
As a follow-up, I just tried the new version 3.8.8. I tought it would solve all my problems....
Of course, I am still having the same problems with erratic movements so I am stuck with using older software.
the [UD] (diagnostic info) information seems to indicate buffer underflow the the erratic-ness seems to increase with move speed.
my problem is still pending with Shopbot support.
Anyone else with a Desktop and version 3.8.8 can tell me how it's working for them ?
