You keep mentioning that the machine won't run and that you have had more and more problems. Maybe if you tell us what the problems ARE, we can help you. Please describe the problems, in order of occurance, in detail.

As I sid before in many statments, when the machine is turned on, whether it is in CNC or set up mode, the computer go into Secet mold and lable the the emergency swich is activated. when it is deactivated or activated the problem still persists. When you turn it off, but I can't turned it off, the s,z and y molde don't work either pushing the buttons of MDI mode. That was the problem when it all began. There was a limit swicth missing fron the factory, we replaced the swicth in the z plane with and it did not fix the problem. Rod of the Coos Bay branch come out or several occassion and he is frustrated. I just received a message fron the corporate offices and I have to send them information on the mother board today. That wre i'm off to. On the other matter, programing the macro, I been referred to page 432 of the manual of the Bob Cad V21 book and I have to call Bob Cad to get the manual the referred to. Maybe,I can get the problem solved and a thank of you for answering my problem.; I will let you know the out comel Thans

Hello Trainfred,

Does your machine have a hinging safety guard in front of the spindle.
When the guard is hinged open the micro switch operated by the guard is also in series with the emergency stop. If the switch is not adjusted correctly it is the same as having the E-S pressed.
The limit switch will only prevent you from referencing the machine.
You need to get the JOG keys (arrows & pgup/pgdn keys) working first.
