Title: Missing pulse engine and drive test
Post by: cnc many on December 16, 2015, 07:41:33 AM

HI ALL
Im new to this game
I had to upgrade from vista to windows 7 as it was impossible to get a lpt which would work most seem to be jumped up usb cards but its old technology
so i got a uc100 motion controller to work with it. The automated set up with this did not install the pulse engine and the drive test.
when i installed mach 3 under vista both were there

question is are these needed with the uc100
ta
Graham   ???

Brill thanks. It's working now
Just got to get the spindle relay to work now   It goes clicks when you activate the screen buttons but not under M3 or
M4

And finish mounting the machine
And do the splash guards
And clean it to assemble
And tram it
And tune the motors
And test it all.
And then it's PLAY TIME,
Mabe it's not going to get painted........

 Ta. Again Graham :)
