Mach4 General Discussion / Re: MACH4, ESS, C25 smoth stepper terminal board V3.1, AND BL-TB6600-V1.2 problem

I'm powering the BOB off the Smoothstepper.  I think everything is setup right but I'm having problems configuring Mach4.  I have the latest version of Smoothstepper plugin but the manual is for the earlier version which shows completely different screens than what the latest plugin provides.  So I'm left to guessing which is getting me no where.  

The reply given in this thread should answer your question. http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,33180.msg230397.html#msg230397

Which jumpers on the ESS smoothstepper need to be set?

The pin26, 5V jumpers - but it depends on how you are powering the BoB please read the ESS documentation here; http://www.warp9td.com/index.php/documentation/doc-ess

I think you can do all of the things you suggest but keep in mind that you will be using Cypress Enable (commonly referred to as CB) which is just a subset of Visual Basic (VB) so your options may be severely limited.

I have never actually needed to do it but the Configurator utility http://www.warp9td.com/index.php/sw can be used to reset the IP address of the ESS to 10.9.9.9 after which you will be able to run the SCU to set-up the system.

Perhaps run through the SCU, it makes the setting-up so easy http://www.warp9td.com/index.php/documentation/doc-scu
