Motion just stops

Sorry to always post about my negatives and not so much about my positives which actually have been more then the negs.

Anyway, for the second time on 2 different files Motion has stopped working part way through the cut. This time it ran to 57% and just stopped, didn’t crash, just stopped sending commands. I thought I’d try clicking on “pause” then restarting it but that didn’t help, I was never able to restore the session.

I have an HP Pavilion G Series laptop, Win 10, 64 bit, 4 gig ram.

Here’s a photo with the error log as well.

Any help would be awesome!

Many thanks.

Unfortunately, as I understand it, Carbide Motion’s architecture makes it difficult to determine if this is caused by an EMI disconnect or CM crashing.

For the former please see: https://wiki.shapeoko.com/index.php/Electronics#Recommendations

For the latter, please consider testing with a 3rd party program: https://wiki.shapeoko.com/index.php/Communication_/_Control

I was getting some EMI disconnects but after I redid the wiring routes they seemed to have ceased.

Thank you for the suggestions Will, I appreciate it and will look into both options you’ve provided.
