Re: Mach3 lathe tools
To make tool changes work use the tool number and the offset.? For example T101, T202 etc.? Also you may have to setup a tool change macro.? Been a while since I did it.? There is a Mach 3 Lathe

Re: Mach3 lathe tools
What is the advantage of this? Why not just define two tool numbers – one for the high and one for the low tool? Or use wear offsets? Isn’t that how most systems work? Sent: April 23, 2022

Re: Mach3 lathe tools
Look at paragraph 7.5.3.3. It explains the T word format. Tool 1 may have a number of entries in the tool table with different parameters set. The last two digits tell the program which tool table

Mach3 lathe tools
Hi All In Mach3 Turn, I'm a bit confused by tool numbering. I've just looked through the manual and see nothing on this; If I select T1 in Gcode then on the Lathe screen I see T0 If I select T100

Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
Maybe unrelated rant; For some mysterious reason most small SBC's have the USB 0V connected to shield. This is demented. I don't know if the uc100 is like that but I usually break the connection on

Re: Mach4 & Single Block
Brian, Glad to hear it's coming. Any chance you can share how it's going to work? Will it behave like Fanuc, Haas, GE, Allen Bradley, Bridgeport, Southwest, et al?

Re: Mach4 & Single Block
I am confident that someone is bugging my office! Yes I am aware of the Single block issue and we are redesigning how it works. We have document telling how it is going to work and a design for how to

Re: Mach4 & Single Block
That has been a 'feature' of Mach4 for a year or more, maybe forever. Ive told Brian about it a couple times, but I think he likes it that way. ron ginger

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
I have been using Arturo’s uc100usb motion controller on my large BPT Series II CNC mills for around 5 years. I have never had a problem with them. These Bridgeport’s are cutting just about every

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
I recently upgraded my mill CNC with Mach4, ESS and the MB3 interface card from cncroom.com. MB3 was delivered very promptly, makes for a neat installation and has so far performed faultlessly

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
If you can, go with Ethernet for the following reasons: - USB shares the grounds, so you can end up with the PC sharing the ground with your CNC.? This can give you noise issues and eventually damage

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
I have a PMDX_125 + USB SS on my WIN-XP MACH3 CNC Router. It's like walking up to my 1939 Delta Bandsaw and flicking the switch to cut something. I liked the PMDX_125 enough to buy a PMDX_126 for

Ditto on the 126 and smoothstepper. Nearly 8 years and 1000+ runtime hours without a single hiccup ... well besides those created by the operator? :-) Still running Mach 3 on XP machines over

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
Might be a little late to this thread, but I made the move and am super happy with the result. I went from a generic "Mach3" branded controller to a PMDX-126 with an Ethernet Smooth Stepper (ess). As

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
I was about to give up until I got the Ethernet Smooth Stepper. There may be other ethernet devices now but I can find no fault with the ESS son that is what I would recommend for a new installation.

Re: Replace/upgrade parallel port driver with/to USB
The ESS is the Ethernet smooth stepper. The Usb version is different while the ESS has been perfect on my big servo driven mill. Dan Mauch Sent: Saturday, March 19, 2022 10:04 AM To:
