Thanks Stuart
We may go back to Mach3 this Mach4 is way over my head.
I was able to get the X Motor to make a slight sound, the Motors tab in Mach4 is beyond me as to how to get them to run.
Thanks again
Ron

Ron,

IMHO it would be worth the effort to get Mach4 running. Warp9 has a great how-to that'll step you right thru the process. If you've got a working machine running on Mach3 you're most of the way there.

In Mach 4 motors tab
Click check box then click the name and turn it blue then you can config the motor
