It isn't a hardware fault. It appears to be a timing bug in the v1.1 firmware related to the DC link capacitor pre-charge routine. The workaround is to cycle the 24V control power twice, rather than the main line voltage. If you replace the capacitors, you are wasting money—update the firmware (if you can find the file) or use the power cycle workaround.

: Requires dual power (USB for digital logic and 12V–24V for peripheral/relay power) to ensure electrical isolation and computer safety. Bl-mach-v1.1 D302

: Use a high-quality DB25 parallel cable. Avoid "USB-to-Parallel" adapters, as they generally do not work with Mach3's real-time requirements. It isn't a hardware fault

The versatility of the D302 becomes apparent in three primary industries: If you replace the capacitors, you are wasting

Five input interfaces allow for the connection of limit switches , emergency stops (E-Stop), or tool setting probes.

It is part of a broader initiative to [initiative goal].
