Hi,
I'm playing with Mach R3.042.040 Demo version.
Any attempt to change DROs in Run Screen opens an calculator.
IS THIS NORMAL, OR WHAT HAPPENS?

I think I discovered the source of the problem. When I unplug printer cable and observe Diagnostic screen in Mach, then I see changes. So, parallel port is working good. It must be a problem with my breakboard. I'll se tomorrow,
Regards to all

I have set standard port. Tomorrow I'll try EPP mode.
Also, I have bougt parallel data cable, but for sure, I'll examine it tomorrow.

Let me post more data:
I measured with scope direct on port. Port address is ok in Mach and the same as in Windows.
Maybe demo mode has no output to port?

Hi,
I just installed brand new 2,2 GHz main board and Mach in demo mode. I tested printing on Laser printer. Is OK.
But I have no communication with machine, no Charge pump signal, all inputs are inactive.
 Any idea?
