    Mach 3 Manual spindle on.

    How comes the spindle on button on Mach 3 software does not turn on he spindle? If the reset button is pressed after the Spindle on then it turns on. Is it because the control logic is inverted? How do you make the spindel to turn on when pressed?

    Is the reset flashing when you try to turn it on?

    I believe it comes on when you press the on button. Then when you press the reset button it clears and spindle starts.

    You can't start the spindle with the reset light flashing, as Mach3 is in E-Stop until you reset.
