Hi all,

This forum seems pretty quiet...

I've been trying to set up my Smoothstepper. My software is all up to date. I'm using Mach3 R3.042.032 (released Nov9), smoothstepper USBDriver2.04.16.zip and Plug-in Beta2_v015ogx2.m3p (released Nov7). I have a good XML file that works perfectly with the parallel port. However, when I try the same XML with Smoothstepper, my X and Z drives to not enable while my Y drive enables but does not move. Any idea where to start with the troubleshooting?

Thanks!

Did you tell Mach to use the SS as your motion control device??? I would guess not. You have to go into Function Cfgs->Reset Dev Sel.. and then restart Mach. Now when you start back up you'll get the license terms screen and then the 'Hey I found an external motion device' dialog. Select the SmoothStepper from the list.

Sorry wrong post
