Title: problem with parallell port on a chinese TB6600 controller
Post by: mvcorrea on July 28, 2015, 09:55:22 AM

Hi There, First Post, extremely new regardind CNC

The situation, mach3 installed on XP, driver ok on device manager, getPortAddress app says LPT1 h378, DriverTest app runs OK.

Installed on the internal port configured as ECP.

I have this Chinese 4 axis TB6600 controller.

(http://s18.postimg.org/4kotogcc5/IMG_20150725_161054.jpg) (http://postimg.org/image/4kotogcc5/)

Tried to move stepper(G0 X20 Y20 Z20) on any port without success (A port supposed to be slaved to X).

Already search for answers in the forum but all partial..

Not yet measured voltage on port pins!

Can Anyone help me in this situation please :)
