Computer crashed (while using) and replaced with another using windows 7 / 32 bit. X, Y and Z Axis work fine on Mach3 dashboard but machine runs X axis in only one direction using right and left arrow keys, Y moves in only one direction using Page up and Page down keys and Z does not move.
CNC did work fine before and no wires or switches were moved or changed
Parallel port seems to be working, checked for voltage after watching video. The cable has continuity point to point. Each controller boards have 5V.
(up and down arrows still do not work and the Up and Down keys work the Y axis in only one direction and the right and left arrows control the X axis in only one direction. I).
The down key causes the red light to go out on the 1st board, up key make the light go on. The left arrow key causes the red light to go out on the 2nd board, right arrow makes the light go on. The up and down arrows do nothing to any light.
Maybe a power surge took out the computer and something in the CNCEST Controller.
Any thoughts (I am still a new user and have tried following troubleshooting posts and videos) or is there a good beginner video on replacing the motor controllers while still using the original controller the control the spindle…Thanks
