Hey all
Excuse any Miss spellings my M doesn't behave well.
Anyways just got my board and was setting it up per Marty's video's. After loading the spindle bench test and clicking cycle start I get a black box no writing in it but at the top it has ( Line 1 ) and (Line 16 ) flashing alternatingly <--- if that's a word.
Can't stop it or clear it except to close cnc12 mill. Unable to continue from there, any ideas?
John

1) Press F4/Run
2) Press F10/RTG On/Off until the screen says "Run-Time Graphics: Off"
3) Press ESC to return to the main screen
4) Try running the bench test program again

With the G codes on the screen, instead of the run-time graphics display, perhaps you will be able to see why it is not proceeding.
