Thanks, I went back and checked the settings and found I had mapped the output pins in ESS, but not enabled them! Opps!  Works like a charm now.

Cheers,

Mach4 General Discussion / Mach4 Restrictions when unlicensed

« on: November 18, 2018, 08:56:47 AM »

Hi all, newbie to Mach4 here.

I'm just experimenting with CNC at the moment, and have an IP Smoothstepper connected to Mach4, I haven't brought a licence yet as I'm still in the 'messing about' phase. I'm aware of the runtime restriction.

I have the Smooth Stepper hooked up to 4 motor drivers via port 1; each seems to work fine, but only if mapped to Motor-0 in Mach, so just changing the mappings in Mach allow me to move an axis.

So my question is, is Mach4 limited to driving only a single motor while unlicensed, or have I messed up something else?

Thanks,

Stephen.
