I tried searching, but can't find the answers to my question in previous threads.
Ive been using Mach3 for years, and have been considering getting a Mach 4 license. I prefer the look of the Mach 4 gui, it seems a better fit for my mill and Warp 9 seems yo put more effort into the Mach 4 plugin.
I downloaded Mach 4 to try in demo mode, but absolutely nothing works.
The software installed fine, and starts fine, but all i can do is browse the various screens.
It doesng seem to recognize my smoothsteppers existence, i cant access the ess plugin, it won't run g-code. Basically, all i can do is see what the gui looks like.
Am i doing something wrong? Im definitely not paying $200 for the license until im certain it will run on my machines integral pc motherboard and cnc hardware.
