    Shuttle Pro Problem

    Hello had the shuttle pro for awhile now and still cant get it to jog properly...I get the same error..

    Thu - 21:17:01 ---Unknown word where unary operation could be
    Thu - 21:17:02 ---Unknown word where unary operation could be
    Thu - 21:17:02 ---Unknown word where unary operation could be

    I have reinstalled everything three times....but the same stuff...also confirmed I am on USb 2.0 in case that was an issue.....the funny thing in the two types of config....it works...I just keep getting the error above when its time to use it in mach3....does anybody have any feedback.

    thanks

    Did you install the shuttle software? If you did, uninstall it.

    Yes, you really need to use the latest version of mach3 and the newest Shuttle plugin.

    Chips in ShuttlePro

    I have been having problems apparently from chips in the ShuttlePro. Does any one have a clever way of sealing it to keep out chips?
