Denford Software & Machines

Posted: **Mon 10 Dec , 2007 9:28 am**

We have a problem with our 3 Mirac machines. The spindle will not run
on any of them - this is a bit odd! Machines are free standing and not
on a network.

Spindle speed is shown as zero when we try to start spindle. I can only
assume that there is a setting that may have been changed by someone.
Can you help resolve this?
