Thought that might be the case, thats why I suggested you flip the switches to the opposite in my last post
Done the dip switch wrong way myself a few times

Following your suggestion it was the next thing on my list to try, before I had a chance the guy I got the controller off sent me a photo of what the dip switches should look like and I thought....hmmmm ok...haha Great when the problem can be found though!

The next minor issue I have to solve is the random cutting out of the estop and limits. I have put my debounce up to 5000 and they still have a habbit of tripping out. Can I put a capacitor across my switches and estop to solve this?

Could it be vibration triggering the switches?  5000 is quite a bit and if its noise you have real problems, are your switch wires shielded and properly grounded at the control end?
Some people use capacitors, 0.1uF is the norm I think but no electronics expert.

Hi im having issues with my Mach3 system, on my Y axis the Y slave and the A drive is not getting the same signal.
the software went corrupt and im not managing to set it back to normal. the Q i have now is can i bridge the A axis from the Y axis drive and run the 2 motors of one driver?

then can someone please send me a picture of the dip switches just to make sure im at the right place?

You need to start a new thread, define the machine model and motion controller used before anyone can help you.
If Mach3 went corrupt, you just reinstall MACH3, copy back your original .XML file.
Why are you then talking about DIP switches?
