General Mach Discussion / Re: im service parrellel sys- 4 mach3 setup

« on: July 06, 2008, 06:25:49 PM »

i bought the sys-4 3axis box and i setup my step dir pin on mach but i  get just a small ammount of movement out of my motors
I know there is power to them because the lock up when i turn the power on.
it is the 3 axis parrellel port system.
it has a cnc4pc c10 breakout board and deskcnc servo driver board.
dont know if im missing something on mach setup
i have a stepper motor cnc system that works fine but cant get this one to work.
my motors turn real slow and some times not at all
i have a 1/2-13 thread  dont know what the correct settings are for the servo motors
for steps /in. -velocity- accelleratio
the sherline systems use the serial port and deskcnc software  this one is parellel port.
thanks for the help
