thank you for you're reply, i am in contact with cslabs on their own forum. i hope they find a solution for this matter. as far as i can tell the new version did let the motors run very smoothly!

I was told by CSLabs that they are working on an update and i should be available in Q1 of this year. I noticed that they had not released updates for the last 2 years…. Perhaps they want to try to bring mach users to their own cnc system they developed…. I hope they wil solve this matter, pointing a finger to the other one is too easy..

hi Graig,
does the screenset contain all the configuration information like Input/Outputs, motortuning and so?
i would think this info is stored in the .ini file

thanks for all the replies. i removed the software (mach4 and CSLabs), i cleaned the registry and reinstalled the 46xx version. i am up and running again with this version. for installing a new version i will take you're advice to rename my current directory..
i will post results from the testing which seems strange to me or which do not work as in the 46xx version.
thanks all!

CS-Lab / update to M4 .5000 version

« on: January 07, 2023, 03:22:04 AM »

i have an EMCO mill converted to mach3 and that runs for a few years now. i use CSLABS CSMIO/IP-S six axis and pokeys for the pendant. the pc is an intel nuc with W10/8GB internal RAM. i converted it to M4 (previous version 46..) all went wel, i made the software for the toolchanger, perfect. (https://youtu.be/a72-Q8TJUow) i did an upgrade to the .5000 version. now CSLABS comes with PID fault: error 1092
i reinstalled M4, made a new clean profile and entered all the setting.. nothing works.
i hope to get some ideas...
