Mach4 General Discussion / Re: MACH4\pokeys57 : Controlling PWM to laser engrave in grayscales

« Last post by momofr83 on February 10, 2026, 03:07:43 AM »

I made some updates to ALIG :
- Added Analog output choice (not suitable yet with pokeys, as it requires analog output 0)
- Added S support
- Choice of the origin point
- Improved graphics

Link of the project : https://github.com/MoMo830/AliG

Do I need to make a new topic as S commands are now supported ?

Hi Gerhard,

I hope you have been well!

You should have an email from my colleague Chris about getting you on our beta testing track. If not, just send me a PM or let me know and I can get you set up.

When it comes to MachPro, how we handle Plasma is rewritten from scratch. So we do need users testing Pokeys.

When it comes to plugins, we now imbed the proper plugins into the installer. So you will just select the certified or compatible motion controller and your plugin + all dependencies should be installed for you. When it comes to internal testing for plasma, we have only tested the M31 + ArcPro at this time. We are working on getting the other THC's like the PlasmaSenseOut, PlasmaDiv, and the WarpRunner.

Hi Paul,

I like to switch to MACHPro from MACH4.
You know my machine after some remote sessions very well.
Would it be possible with my Pokeys57CNC?
Your chatbot said you have done basic tests for moving and setting I/Os
and Pokeys is on your compatible list -> which plugin you used for this tests?

BR

Gerhard
