Sorry about that, it works the way that Sid explained.

I don't understand the "Parallel Port Reference for the DB26F pin allocation" ... the Port number is set on the first tab of the ports ans pins dialog.

Mach3 may be to much for that computer But you can test it if you like Mach2 and 3 can be on the same computer ...


Hope that helps

The enable output is on the ports and pins output tab. if you set the pin to be 14 and the port to one every time you have the machine enabled the output will turn on.
Hope that helps

I found your problem

You need to change your port number to 1 on each one of the pins.. after I did that I could see the LEDs changing!
