You will need to interface the Stepper drives to the P Port and I would recommend getting a break outboard as well.

Thanks

What were your problems with Mach3??? and post your Mach2 XML and I will have a quick look at the settings.

You should also know that you can have both Mach2 and Mach3 on the same computer
thanks

LazyCam (Beta) / Rev. Numbers

« on: September 18, 2007, 10:40:41 PM »

Hello All,
Art and I are now going to make the Rev of Lcam the same as the Rev for Mach3... If there is an Update to Lcam and the Rev of Mach3 did not change we will add a .*********x to the Lcam number. I hope this can fix the Rev problem.


thanks
Brian

If it helps I know what the problem is but on the other hand it is not as much fun as it sounds to make it all work like that .... If you offset the path and use a leadin on that you will never go wrong You could also turn on comp at that point! and it will work every time! This is how you should be dong comp if you would like to have it work better (yes on a Fanuc as well) tool dia offset should not be more then about +-.0625 ... try it like that and tell me how it works please.
thanks
