"Dead Stick" Machine will move in DCC but not Manual, please help

We have a Global Advantage DCC machine with PC DMIS 2011, and H00008 Universal Jogbox, I calibrated the probe as usual, after it went through the calibration routine, the stick went dead, I could not get the machine to move manually no matter what I tried, So I tried doing some DCC moves and it worked! I then shut off and restarted everything but still, the jogbox will not move the machine, has anyone out there had this or a similar problem?? Please help.

PS No damage to machine or jogbox, it just stopped working manually

    At this point I thought oh easy he probably has a Tp20 or equivalent, those get 'gunky' after a while and you have to gently move it around to 'un-stick' it. Then you said the following...

    Since it worked fine in DCC mode I have no clue, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Why I posted anyway? I was already half way before I payed attention to second part of your post.
