Mach3 not controlling motors
eoinie:
Hi List
I'm running Mach 3 with Windows 7. I had to do a clean install of Win7 and since I did the DRO is jogging but not the motors. That reassuring click I used to hear when PC connected to the motors is no longer there. The two are not communicating. It feels like its a driver issue but I have the drivers installed as they were before. I'm using Smooth Stepper driver. Can someone tell me exactly where they should be just in case. Any help would be appreciated hugely.

Hi,
is your Windows OS 32 bit or 64 bit?
What is the version number of the SmoothStepper plugin? Should be in the plugins folder.

Hi Craig
Thanks for getting back. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit and SmoothStepperUSBDriver2.08.02. Theres also a .m3p file called SmoothStepper_v17d

Hi,
well those files sound about right.
Have you installed the Windows driver per Warp9's instruction?
Have you selected the Mach3 USS plugin as your active motion plugin?

I'm afraid I don't know what you are saying. I'm not great on PC's
