Thanks for the response Craig. I purchased this UC100 from CNC4PC directly, so it is authentic. I did get an error message when installing the software blocking it, but thought I had resolved it. To be sure, I turned my firewall off and re-installed the program from them. I now have the following:
a. Both lights are on in the motion controller adapter. (did not have that until I re-installed this morning)
b. The UC100 shows up in all the drop downs.
c. The drop downs all recognize the UC100 now.
d. The drop downs say the controller is working properly.
e. the UC100 is identified as the controller
In the UC100 diagnostic "Pin States" drop down, I cannot change anything. It shows #13 in red, which in the set up shows blank. I cannot change anything in this screen. All the others I was able to make changes per instructions.
I am trying to get the machine to respond to jogs, but nothing works. When I turn on VPD the spindle rotates, but nothing else moves. (the water is also turned on)
I can't figure out what I am not doing. The big problem is I don't know what I don't know, if that makes sense to you.
Do you think I should clean out the download and start over, or is there a fix I need to know.
I really appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks,
Tim
