Tweakie thanks for your reply.  I really like how Mach3 has worked with my current machine and I wasn't too excited about the idea of having to start anew.

Thanks again,
Dell

Hello all, The name's Dell.  I consider myself fairly new to CNC, however I've been CAD'ing and running a PhlatPrinter for a couple of years.  Mostly I use it to support my RC fix.

General Mach Discussion / Newbee Question... More than one machine, only one Mach3 install

« on: April 01, 2013, 07:51:22 PM »

Hello all, I'm fairly new to CNC, however I've been CAD'ing and running a PhlatPrinter for a couple of years.

My working machine is a 3-axis setup running a licensed copy of Mach3 (ver 2.6) under XP on a laptop with a USB connected smoothstepper.
I am nearing completion of a 4-axis foam cutter build.

I would like to run both machines from the same Mach3 installation. I have read over the Mach3 literature and searched the forums for information on this but have not found a discussion about this situation.

I know you can setup different profiles in a Mach3 installation, but do they allow you to run more than one machine?

Thanks for any help!!!
