It works here....I was able to download the "pod driver.jpg" picture file just fine.

To get the actual driver, go here:

Not sure why it does not work for me, it takes me back to the login screen even though I'm logged in. Thanks for the reply and link.

Ah... this has happened to me.  I went into windows and did a search for "machsupport" and where ever there was a cookie in the list I deleted it.  Then I relogged on to this site.

Looks like there is a new version of the Mach plugin V2.00.038

Also a new version of the firmware for the Pod. V 2014

Moderator please remove this post when the locked,  "latest version"  thread is updated.

Thanks,   Greg

It looks like the plugin is only the same version .037. But the firmware was upgraded to 2014.  Dave, did you get any new info???

The listing on the plugin page says it is .037 but if you download and install, it comes up as .038

I downloaded "Mach3 R2.00.041" and installed it.
A new version is displayed with "Version R2.0.040".
A firm ware version of NCPOD is displayed with "2.0.038".
I deleted "the latest Microsoft .net framework" once just to make sure and installed it again.
I prohibited Legacy USB by BIOS and rebooted.
It is expected that MACH3 and USB communication of an NCPOD board are ready, but cannot complete movement.
It is displayed with USB library:usb_bulk_read endpoint 2byte=116:usb_reap:timeout err.
I suppose that I use six "Mach3Mill" axes for me, and please show an example of Kon Figg military ration of "a port and a pin".

Follows are communication from my friend.
”I tried to move it in NncPOD and Mach3 today.
How to change courses of a motor does not understand that I noticed.
I do not understand setting of a home.
A limit is not usable.
I could confirm a limit and movement of a home with a ncPOD screen of Mach, but was not usable.
The navel orange (the 14th pin) of a sea bream and the spindle oil (the first pin) worked moo well.
Connection cut inside audio system cable for PCs in half and tied connection of other users to reference in a D assistant 25 pin male.
I stopped when I really carried out maximum around 200 lines G code with the button 所 "libretto U100" laptop that I tried to let you process it. It was able to process it in SC430 of "Dell" which was in a condition where there was not E-STP cancellation unless I rebooted Mach and ncPOD after stopping to there there, but stopped afterwards in the place that said a little more.

I appear and do it.”

apollonono,
I'm sorry but I'm having some trouble understanding your english. I want to help you. Can you please repost your exact problem?
Title: Re: Report Any NC Pod Driver, Firmware or Documentation Download Problems Here
Post by: apollonono on February 04, 2007, 04:49:15 AM
Thank you for giving an answer to me. My native language is not English.
I use an interpreter, and expression is not correct.
"Setting" of "port 's" and "pin 's" of MACH3 gets very tangled with a manual of "ncPOD".
Please show an example of "setting" to me.
It hopes for six axes and Estop, Homes, motor,step,dir from three axes.

Here is an example of motor settings for Mach. I don't think the step and direction pins are important only enable and port number.

Post by: rcrabb on February 04, 2007, 11:40:00 AM
This is my setings for inputs. For home inputs I don't believe the pin number is important only enable and port number.

Thank you.
I study an image of the setting that you told it about.

Do you carry out the label of the setting screen, and can get it about an Estop input or six outputs? He cannot understand explanation of ncPOD, and inconsistency of regulation of MACH3.

I cannot understand a Universal Serial Bus port.
Is "ncpoddriver.zip" "an USB2.0" driver of "ncPOD?"
Communication of "ncPOD" needs "USB2.0".
"USB2.0" is not prepared for "Windows 2000".
An application producer prepares a driver generally, but where can demand it?

Still having trouble with connecting. I had Vista connected, but it
kept on losing connection, so I installed win2k pro like I did on a
previous machine. On the first machine I had success with a new pod,
but never could get the one previously setup on Vista to work. Same
phenomena occurring now. I don't have a new pod yet to try, but that
is all I did previously to get up and running. Is setting up on Vista
"blocking" something on the pod where I can't use it later on Win2k or
XP? I'm going to re-install Win2k with SP4 to give it one more shot.
Anybody have any bright ideas?

The machine which I am going to carry out is WIN2KSP4.
WIN includes English version and a Japanese edition, and it is a Japanese edition that I own.
Does a difference of a version become introduction disorder of firm ware? ???

Post by: tbyrd0918 on June 06, 2007, 10:33:47 AM
The way I understand it is the SP4 is necessary for the USB 2.0
The USB 2.0 is necessary for the ncPod to work ? I think.

Mr. Carl says that movement of USB2.0 is necessary. However, I estimate that upload is not possible by a problem before it. ::)

"USB 2.0" is introduced into my "WIN2K" and will need it. How can I confirm it if I do it? ???

I'm having trouble with losing NC Pod connection.  After an hour or so it just dies and I have to restart the computer to get things going again.  Since my programs are normally 4 or 5 hrs in length, this is a problem.  Where to turn?

Because he tries it hard to finish a good work anytime, he does not give me off so pessimistically.
I may expect it in the next firm ware more. :o
