If the Shopmaster mill motors aren’t moving when the jog button is pressed do the following.

• Disengage the physical E-stop button. 

• Set Mode to Mill

• Set Spindle Power to On

• Set CNC Power to On

• Set Stepper Motors to On

• Turn on Computer, 

• Startup up Mach3mill

• Click the reset button

• Verify that the jogging button is green

• Verify that it clears the E-stop message

• Press the arrow keys on the keyboard and see if the stepper motors move.

If the motors still don’t move that means it is not communicating with the computer or is not getting power.  There is a small switch on the Gecko marked CHARGE PUMP- be sure this is in the OFF position.  Also be sure all your cables are connected to the Gecko solidly and secured with the screws and also be sure your DB25 cable is also securely connected to the computer.   If all that is good, open the end panel and look at the power supply- it should have a green light .
