    Default Control Software 3.6.5

    Anyone else having a slight issue with the new control software. At times it seems not to initiate a command...if I click on Jog toolbar the dropdown window comes down and then I click on Jog x and y and it closes the window but nothing happens??? It happens with file and then open part file as well. I switched back to the 3.5.20 and everything is fine. ??? Just curious if anyone else experienced this. Good news though... I was having motor noise and backlash and shopbot replaced one of my X motors and things are better. The replacement x motor was very tight and made no sound when you move the shaft unpowered. My existing motors all make a clicking sound and I have had alot of grinding, rattling and backlash issues. Still ongoing but great service once again from Ted and the support group. Thanks

    I have experienced similar. Below is a pic of an issue I reported in August that shows the command "J2,12,12" entered and [ENTER] key hit multiple times with no response from the software.

    Glen, I had the same issues and went back to an older version of the sb3. It's not as fancy, but it works. I think Gary has to use the newer version for the Ecabinetrs link though.

    Let me know when they fix it Gary. lol

    It is very annoying. I went back to 3.5.x to avoid it.
