I personally just don't address any specifics anymore related to most Chinese sold stuff and in
particular their stepper drives / controllers.
Sorry, but they / distributors need to support their products and quit making "fools" of us good
intentioned folks!
That said,
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Post your xml files so configuration can be checked for problems.
Open the Mach3 directory and you will see file types called "XML Document".
Make a copy of the one you are using for the machine.
Rename the file so it is unique ie; if Mach3MILL then change to say....ccr4mill.xml
To post the file:
Below the reply box click "Preview" button, when the screen opens up click the "Additional Options"
and you will see that you can browse to select an attachment and tehn click the Post button to post it.
2.In the mean time Run the "DriverTest" application as that will install the driver to Windows.
You will find the application in the MAch3 directory.
3.Make sure you have the port address correct in configuration.
4.Have a look at the available videos and manuals.
One in particular is Mach3 Tutorial - Setting up a basic three axis milling machine.
Link to new Artsoft site:
http://www.machsupport.com/software/mach3/Navigate via" Downloads and Updates " to the "FTP Downloads" and you will find the file there.
5.You will need to set the ports and pins correctly to get motion.
The Chinese have this so screwed up with their different boards, and possibly bad definiton
of the axis pin outs.......and for this you are on your owne!
6.Assume that the motors and drivers work. There are ways to test components but get MAch installed
and configured. You should have some type of documention for what you bought. Post "all" of it so
folks don't have to spend time looking for the proper info. If nothing ask the vendor who sold it
to you for it.
Until then,
