2 Machines 1 Computer
« on: November 03, 2015, 07:23:52 PM »
I have one small CNC running, and a second setup to play with G-code for robotics.  I have 2 LPT ports but not sure how to run both setups (1 at a time), without changing the Port Pins back and forth for each setup.  Both are using different boards, so the pins are different.

Mach3?

Setup two profiles....

In pins and ports...first tab... Set one profile up with one LPT port address... Then set the other profile up with the other LPT port...

Hope it helps
