Connection lost

I keep loosing the connection to my Shapeoko Pro when I run jobs. The error message in Carbide Motion is simply “Connection Lost” and the Shapeoko simply stops. I tried to unplug the USB cable etc but this didn’t help. Does anyone have any advice please?

If you e-mail into support we have a list of things we like users to try. The first is to run an air job.
Reach out at support@carbide3d.com and we’ll work to resolve this issue.

Thanks! I ran the air job which was fine. I then put my 1000 W vacuum cleaner on a different socket than the Shapeoko/Computer. It’s running fine again now!

Thanks Michael. I connected my 1000 W vacuum cleaner to a different socket than the Shapeoko and that solved the problem… :wink:
