Hi Martin,
 Ok so You should do your research. there is a lot to choose from. I use a uc400eth. It works with cnc drives own control software called uccnc or it works with mach3 via a plugin. they offer others a well. https://www.cncdrive.com/products.html
there is not much setup. So you install the plugin in mach3 and enable it once you open mach3 it will give a option to select the motion controller once that is done you up and running. Smooth stepper is another option. in either case for mach3 you just install a plugin, enable the plugin and you back in business.

Are there any settings in Mach3 to change the direction of spindle rotation? Only the left ones work for me

Can you be a little more specific? Left ones ?  M3 turn spindle on CW,M4 Turn spindle on CCW.
Also what kind of spindle?

If you look at your Diag. screen do you see a Estop condition?  what stepper drivers and motion control do you use?

What kind of motion control do you use? Parallel port, USB port or ethernet?
I had that issue when I use a USB motion controller. Long runs the usb port would disconnect and my machine would stop. I have switched to a ethernet motion controller.

I'm not sure if the uc100 supports spindle input.

Sorry I don't think that board will do what you want. Here is a little info on it though.
