Just a note here...

No CNC machine can be operated from the Parallel Port of a PC operating Win10 64 bit running Mach3. 

A CNC machine can, however, be operated using the S3 board (motion controller) and the Ethernet connection to a Win10 64 bit PC.

Ah - MachforWin64 - nothing to do with an LPT plug-in. It's actually a competitor to the ESS.

Hi,
kool, mystery solved. Maverick you may want to do a bit of research and find a manual for your controller, just what its capable of and how you
set it up are going to be critical to you getting the best from your machine.

Hi Maverick,
that's interesting, I wonder if the plugin flashes the controller with some sort of firmware but can thereafter run in absence of the plugin.

Glad that you've got the info tho...the chances are your going to need it over the coming months. CNC is not plug and play as a rule and the better
your info/knowledge the better chance you have of advancing your hobby and very personally satisfying it is too.

Hi,
I have a little mSATA SSD in my Atom platform that runs my mill, I luv it, fast, tiny and reliable. Just to think only 5 years ago would have been to
pricey for home use now cheap as chips.

Hi Mav,

I would certainly be interested in seeing the results.
