My pattern router that has been rock solid position wise forever started loosing position. At the same time I had a few times when launching UCCNC it would fail to see the UC-100. I put a new USB cable on it and it's working great but as we all know that doesn't mean a thing in this game.
So my question is: Can a bad USB cable on a UC-100 cause position loss during a run but not throw a lost communications error. Because the only thing I did was shut down UCCNC, replace the cable and restart UCCNC. Even used the same USB port on the computer.
The first loss was measured at .047" on the Z axis. The second was .372" on the Y and the third was a whopping 3" or more. I eyeballed that one so it was give or take a bit:)
Thanks
