Hello All. I’m new to using a CNC system and new to using the Mach4 software. I have a LMS3990 converted to CNC, but I think there are several things preventing my setup from working correctly. I have several questions that require more than posting within this User Group. Is there anyone in this groups that lives in the North Seattle / Everett Washington State area? ?I’m looking for someone that knows how to troubleshoot Mach4 Hobby Edition and how to make adjustment suggestions for a bench top mill. Thanks, Walt W.
|
Walt, I live north of Everett and I am familiar with Mach3, haven’t installed Mach4 yet since Mach3 is working fine.?
I’ve also done some retrofitting to CNC
If you want to email me then I can give you my phone number and we can talk about what you’re looking for.?
Chuck?

Chuck if you have issues with 4 Please make sure you contact us
so we can help you with how the settings differ from Mach3 to 4.
Thank you for assisting!

Hi Brian, I appreciate your reaching out to assist in switching to 4.?
I have three machines running 3 and everything is working well currently.?
A while back I was having an issue on one of my machines running 3 and decided to switch??to 4.?
I got??most of the parameters set up on 4 and then my issue went way on that machine and I never got around to finishing up putting 4 on it.?
based on all the good things I hear about 4, I would??really?like to get??it up and running but I can’t seem to find the time to do it.?
Regards, Chuck

I want you to enjoy all the work we have put in :) We have some
really cool features coming out in this next release. The
Diagnostics tool is really fun to use graphing data from the core
of mach4 and anything else you may want to test.

Brian, Are there any new “wizards“, guidelines or whatever for converting from 3 to 4?
I believe it was in 2019 when I started to configure 4 and then set it aside.?

Funny we had talked about working on the tools to do that today.
We have an XML converter tool but it will not setup the motion
controller .
We have a spreadsheet that we use to put all the data into and a
tool to read the XML's.
I can have you work with one of the guys if you like that use the
tools everyday.
Thanks
Brian
