Details of ISSUE or REQUEST (Please be as specific as possible):
I was manually moving the carriage with the arrow keys from Mach 3. Z and Y were fine, but X was random. Pushing either the left or right arrow key made it go right, sometimes left, sometimes not at all.
I unplugged the brain of the CNC and rebooted the computer, and it still behaved the same way
When pressing the right arrow key, my x location on Mach 3 would continue to increase even if the carriage was moving so the left. And if I was pressing the left arrow key and it was moving to the right, the numbers were still going negative. I didn’t watch the numbers when the carriage wasn’t moving at all because I didn’t want to burn anything up.
I manually typed out a basic g-code program, and even then when I told it to go left, it’s still randomly went right
I did not try the remote, the batteries were dead
