Title: machine movement
Post by: HMR on August 05, 2020, 10:01:46 AM

Hello, just completed new build and I am in process of configuring Mach3. I can jog all 3 axis but am not able to get movement through MDI or by writing small program. I am not sure what to do next.
I am using windows 10. machine is hooked up via usb. Thanks Bill

Hi,
there are any number of posts on this forum about those boards, also called RnR and who knows how
many other names, they do work but they are a headache at best.

Are you that attached to it or would you consider buying a decent European or US made board, like an
Ethernet SmoothStepper or a UC300? They work as advertised and the manufacturer WILL support you to get it working.
Both these manufacturers (Warp9TD and CNCdrive) have their own dedicated forums to support their products.
