The reason I am using MaxCL is specifically because the installation instructions on Darek's BOB board tells me to.
Nowhere in his instructions does it mentions how to specifically set or enable the axis, just set MaxCL and don't worry about the rest.
Specifically, his instruction states:
"The software must be set to Max CL Mode (This is done under Config, Ports and Pins, Port Setup and Axis Selection.). When the software is in this mode you do not have to configure the motor outputs for the axis (Pins 2-9)."
And that's it. Nothing else at all on setting up the drives.
Now I just received this email from Darek:
"Charles,
The axis have to be enabled X, Y & Z ( They use to come that way, the newest version of Mach 3 may have changed.) The PIN and PORT #'s assignment is automatic with MaxNC CL mode.
Thanks,
Darek"
But no explanation on HOW to enable the axis!
So I guess the question is, how do I enable the axis?
Thanks,
Charles.
