SmartBOB controllers and dedicated accessories / Re: Many problems with my 424
« on: December 27, 2021, 05:12:29 AM »
radio.dub---I have basically the same issues and they have seemed to get progressively worse over time. I upgraded a Chinese machine a few years ago so I could get rid of the bootlegged mach 3 they send it with so I go a 424 and mach 4 and wish now I would have just stayed with what they sent. It has been about two years since I did the upgrade and it started out with mach 4 giving the error on start up that it didn't find the controller. That is easily remedied by unplugging the usb cable and restarting mach 4. Then it progressed to doing it every once in great while during operations or while I was using the machine. Now what you describe is just about spot on with what I have been experiencing lately.
So if you guys figure anything out or hear back from Steve please post as I would like to see if there is anything that can be done. On a side note, the original card that came with the machine never experienced any glitches like the this smart bob does but I kind of like the Mach 4 GUI screens and the fact that you can customize it pretty easily. So I have forwent going back to the old card and mach 3.
