even here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN7VospeGN0

if you Switch everything on, do you have Holding torque at your Motors?

ok,
attached the brain.

-copy the file to c:\mach3\brains
-start Mach3
-goto Operator -> Brain Control
-highlite the brain DigitzeLED.brn
-set the enable hook
-press reload all

finished

then you can Switch to the diagnostic sceen, and watch output4

with win7 and latest updates, you alos have to be careful.
have a look here:

had a look to your Motor controller Manual, i think dip Switch 8 has to be on.

if you are using a real parallel port you have to use win7/32bit or below.
are you using a real PP ?

until the step/dir leds don't Change state i think there is nothing commeing from PP

is the port adress set correctly?

you can not configurate this.

you have to use a brain, or macropump for this.

for me the Jumper Settings on the pmdx look ok.
i assume you have checked the alt pwr in ?
what stepper Drivers do you use?
what are the led's (step/dir) doing if you try to jog?
you have a real parallel port , not a emulated one ?
you are using win7/32bit ?
