When does this error occur? When it is testing the bits? While Carving? If you turn the machine off (and wait a minute) does the Z-truck move up/down smoothly by hand?

It started with check board sensor that i cleaned up and now go's right to z axis stall , every thing moves with no apparent problem .

so when you turn the machine on and select the project, it gives a z-stall?

Loose cable on the motor is one possibility. With power on and you use options to look at the Y Encoder data, it looks normal when you move it by hand?

Give me a call if you want to walk through it.

# is on the web site.
