I have a licenced copy of scananything i received when i bought my procutcnc scanner/tracer. When i install it and go into mach 3 the sheets remote plugin is not listed (config plugins area). Any ideas on how to get this working. Its running on a new dual core machine with lots of ram etc running windows xp.[/quote]
Try installing Scanything or SheetCam again. If Mach was installed after Scanything and SheetCam you won’t see the plugin.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled it twice. No change.
Well, it was worth a try. Is your copy of Mach installed in c:\Mach3?
No my C is a system reserve drive…its installed on d:/mach3
Ok so i redid my system yesterday and mach is now on C. Reinstalled scananything and the plugin is now in mach. However when i go into scananything is keeps telling me it cannoy connect to the machine. Any ideas?
SheetCam and Scanything expect to find Mach in c:\Mach3 so that explains why the plugin didn’t install. I assume you did enable the plugin in Mach.
In Scanything is ‘use Mach3’ selected in the file menu?
Hello…yes i enabled the plugin and use mach 3 is selected. Just not able to connect to the machine
That’s odd. It should only say ‘not connected to machine’ if Mach3 isn’t running.
Mach 3 is running atbthe time as well just not connecting for some reasonn
