General Mach Discussion / frustration time, no signal to motor controllers
« on: September 21, 2018, 11:32:24 AM »
Have gone through the setup procedure twice now, and still in demo mode I guess since I have not purchased a license. First question is this, after all the setup is finished, if I enter Gcode in midi, the software screen shows movement in all directions I have entered, but the motor controllers are apparently not getting the signals. Should the motors run in demo mode? Motors are hooked up but not connected to the machine drives yet. I am using latest copy of Mach3, windows xp computer, and a parallel port connection. I have checked the ports and they are supposedly functioning per normal.
