General Mach Discussion / Re: M10/M11 Control

« on: June 02, 2021, 08:21:20 AM »

Can anyone recommend any other budget USB CNC controller boards that are compatible with the M10/M11 commands that can be used for Laser cutting.

Thanks.

The Warp9 USS supports the M11/M10 command set but please be aware that both the USS and Mach3 are now obsolescent products.

Hi Propstuff,

This forum is really just for members to communicate / discuss issues and, of course, help others if they can. Although this thread is monitored by Goomba, on behalf of Artsoft / NFS, he does not always reply to every post.

If you need a problem to be looked at by Artsoft / NFS specifically then you need to contact them directly by way of their Help Desk ;  https://www.machsupport.com/support/

Andy at Warp9 has said that rigid tapping is something that they are interested in doing but it will be a while before they complete it because there are higher priority requests currently being dealt with.
Your guess as to when is as good as mine

Check that you have the correct Port and Pin numbers (Step and Direction) for your Z axis in Config. / Ports & Pins / Motor Outputs and also check that it is enabled.

Hi Dave,

If you need to do more testing there are many example Gcode files (which are less than the Demo 500 line limit) in the .zip file here;  https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=18345.0

what do you use for adapter cable to go from the 26pin header cables?

Various cables are available from the Warp9 website;  https://warp9td.com/index.php/order#Ordering

Hi dly.xover,

The Ethernet version.

(The USB version is really only offered for sale by Warp9 as a 'replacement part' as all future development, bug fixes, etc., for the USB product have now ceased).
