PoKeys / Re: does not get PoKeys57CNC running with Mach3 plugin

that will be why it did not work I added .net 3.5 for another program to work, drillmaster everything you did was correct you just had a missing dependency

that looks correct it does that every time you go in and out of the pulse engine it's locked and you have to untick lock settings every time. I will have a look tomorrow.

NeoTO hopefully will see this soon

reinstall M3 and uninstalled the pokeys software of the top of my head can't rember it was xmas time when I did it.

just connect everything up power up then install the software don't set anything in M3 just don't start M3 to you have movement in the pokeys pulse engine, let it do the work for you it's a crazy arise controller and it set's it self, I still don't know what pin does what but it work very well.
the only pin I had to set was the pwm pin.

once I realized what to do it was 5 mins from set up to running code, I hope all other controller makers do the same thing it make's life very easy just having to wire up and install software

you still need to put this on paper NeoTO, I know you boys are flat out with all the good stuff you boys do it would help everyone else to M4 and Auggie is more stable then like everyone else you can drop M3

what I found I stuffed up for a start by trying to set stuff first. what I ended up doing was resetting the pokeys and mach3.

then I powered everything up with everything connected then loaded up the pokeys software it run the update of the firmware then i went into the pokeys setting set it to 3ch with extended IO did the limits and homes steps per and that stuff.

then when I loaded up Mach3 I opened up the pokeys settings and set everything it was all there I just had to map it correctly.

you don't set anything on the pokeys dialog page at all when you first set it up you let it do it it self, I know this sounds wrong but it worked onces everything was self set up I was able to change what needed changed and yes they need to do some more instructions for setting up the 57cnc
