Mach4 Plugins / Mach 4 plugin for Z-Bot Jog Dial II

« on: July 15, 2017, 07:31:01 PM »

 Does anyone know there is a plugin for the Z-Bot Jog Dial II?  I am trying to use it with Mach 4.  It installed but is not working; probably because it is for Mach 3.

I am trying to evaluate Mach4 to determine whether to purchase Mach3 or Mach4.  My machine is a Windows 7 Pro OS w/SP1, on a Dual Core 3GHz CPU with 8Gb RAM PC  My system uses a parallel port.

I has already tested out Mach3 and everything was working fine with the hardware setup I have.   I backed up my files and uninstalled Mach3 and have proceeded with installing Mach4 Demo.  I have installed mach4 and also installed a licensed copy of the Legacy Parallel port plugin.  What I saw upon the install of the plugin is that it would not install the 2008 redistributables.  They were then installed separately, as administrator.  The plugin install was then restarted and it installed successfully.  I then added the license to Mach4...Restarted the machine...Tested Darwintest and it runs fine.  Now Mach 4 is run and during the initialization of the program it displays a dialog box; which states -  

Darwin Error
    
       An error has occured. No Admin Rights?.  Contact support

I have installed all software as an administrator.  What is causing this problem?
