Hi All.
My name is Pete, I have a small furniture making and joinery business in Gloucestershire, UK, and use CNC routing to assist with some of the design and make aspects of my work. It has proved to be a slow development of skills with this, but useful and enjoyable tooling to have.
New to the Forum as am in need of some advice regarding my machine and current technical difficulties being faced with, hence reaching out to MYCNCUK.

Anyone UK based owning and using a Marchant Dice machine running Mach3 on a Windows XP OS, parallel port PC?
If so I would love to hear how you are getting on and hear some advice as I am some what stuck at the moment with mine.
(Minor crash the other day which has consequently had the Kress spindle decide not to run.) Cannot raise contact with Marchant Dice at all!!!
I have tried the spare spindle I have here to no avail. (Both spindles are functioning correctly when plugged into the mains directly.) All other obvious aspects of the machine, the PC, Mach3 etc seem to be in order.

It appears that somehow the ON / OFF instructions from the controller are not there anymore. Lends me to think that there is a switch which has tripped or fuse blown as a result of the crash. There are no obvious 'in line' fuses externally with the Kress or its cable back to the controller.
My next step will be to disassemble the controller to inspect the insides, hoping to find a blown fuse!
Can anyone shed any light on this and assist?

Can anyone recommend the fix. I would greatly appreciate some advice.

Kind Regards Pete.
