Hi Thomas,
Sorry my comments are in English.
I think you need to contact Polabs directly for full details but it is my understanding that the 57CNC / Mach4 plugin only supports threading under certain circumstances (for example it does not support step / direction spindle control) and even then the results may not be consistent.
It is important that the Mach4 version which you use matches with the Polabs plugin version and this information will only be available from Polabs. In addition, not all Mach4 development versions are available from the NFS FTP server (some have recently been removed) so if Polabs recommend a particular version best to get a download link from them.
Hope this helps,
Tweakie.
