Can you not connect to the Ajax?
Hood

no, because ajax has pcb tarjet for servo motor, my rotary table has stepper motor.

The parallel port driver is not a plugin so afraid you can not use it with the Ajax, its one or the other. If needing more non time sensitive I/O then maybe look at a PLC or the PoKeys.

How can I work with AJAX and parallel port?

Tengo MACH3 funcionando con AJAX. Esta tarjera tiene un plugin que se acopla a mach3 para majenar motores. Lo que necesito es tambien poder usar el puerto paralelo para manejar otro motor.

Hay como usar 2 plugins al miso tiempo. Puedo usar el puerto paralelo y un plugin ethernet?

Ojala me puedan ayudar...[/b]

I have Mach 3, it is working with AJAX CNC and ethernet plugin. I do know if I can to use the parallel port.

The mach 3 is using AJAX PLUGIN. Can I work with another plugin? I need to use parallel plugin too.

Thanks in advance.

You would need to write a plugin, modbus/serial is no use for controlling axis as it does not have the precise timing required. There is a plugin  SDK on the downloads page I think.

Thank you for your reply
Would you help me with the plugin develop? How can I design that?

Why do you want to control the steppers with a Pic AND Mach - that will be like an orchestra with two conductors ?

Why do you say that??? The PIC is the interface between MACH3 and motors because the computer does not have a parallel port (touch smart). I want to use USB. ETHERNET is better.

Thank you for your reply! 

How can I do it???

If you say me that so modbus serial/ethernet dont work with motors? My brother say me that we can control with serial port and a little commands.

Help me please.
