I have built CNC router, just testing to move X-axis to calculate mm/full cycle.
I set X-axis port setting and "Step per" to 1 as shown in images below, so it will move one step per unit.
I run "G0 X200" to move motor one full cycle. (because most motors have 200 full steps per cycle)
I monitor the LPT port with another program.
After running this code "G0 X200", I thought it should send 200 pulses to D0 - Step pin (second LPT pin) as I set in Port Setting.
LPT monitor shows, Mach3 is sending pulses to D4 & D5 (6th & 7th pin)
Why Mach3 sending pulses to D4 & D5 (6th & 7th pin), expect it should send pulses to D0 (2nd pin)?
Please help, I'm newbie here with Mach3.
