    Default Mach3 G-code just stops during run

    Good Evening Gents,

    I'm put coming up on the completion of my G0704 Hoss conversion, and tonight for the 1st time since putting the system back together. I tried to run the example G-codes that come with Mach3. I have run them before with just the motors connected to my controller and they ran without issue, but tonight no luck. The complete g-code would load and it would start when I started the cycle but would only run about 400 lines, and I noticed that when I regenerate the tool path only a small portion of the objects path gets regenerated. Can anyone please explain to me what I am doing wrong.

    Thanks in advance

    Mach3 is running in demo mode.
    Do you have a license?

    Yes, it good. I had been running the example codes with the motors disengaged from the mill and completely regenerating the toolpath. Now I only get a very small portion of the toolpath and it doesn't complete the run. Could I have accidently turn on demo mode when I was setting up it the garage tonight? If so how do I get it out of demo mode

    Mach only does this when in demo mode or licence key has been lost

    You're name should be displayed in the title bar, or in the Help > About window.
    If not, then you're license is not working, or not installed.
