Hi Sean,

Welcome to the forum.

I am sure you have already done this but you need to correctly install and enable the plugin as per details here http://cncdrive.com/MC/UC100%20datasheet/UC100%20users%20guide.pdf

Within Mach3;  Config / Config Plugins  check that it is enabled.

If you download and run Parmon http://www.geekhideout.com/parmon.shtml this will show the state of the parallel port pins.

Excellent build quality Gary - my congratulations on your work.

( I don't think I could work in a shop that clean and tidy though  )

Perhaps the first thing you should try is cutting your Velocity and Acceleration settings, in motor tuning, by 50% (for all axes) and see if this cures the problem.
(A G01 feed-rate of 2200 mm/min may be a little optimistic for the Chinese 6040).

Hi Killian,

Welcome to the forum.

If you post your question as a new topic in the General Mach Discussion section I am sure someone will know the answer to resolving this particular problem.

In Config / General Config, un-check 'Use Watch Dogs' and see of that cures the problem.
