Mach4 General Discussion / Mach4 Parallel Port Axis Setup
« on: February 10, 2020, 07:46:18 AM »
Hi there,
I'm new to the CNC world and have been trying to setup a machine with mach4. I was able to set it up with mach3 and everything seemed to work fine, so I bought Darwin to try mach4.
The problem I'm having at the moment is that I can't get all axes to run at the same time. I have a direction pin for x as 7, and step pin for y is also 7. For some reason this worked in mach3 but Darwin doesn't seem to like this. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Aaron
