I just got my first CNC .... Milltroinc Partner 1  I don't have a picture yet of it but this is the same model that i have What I was told was that I could use the rs232 port to control the machine and by pass their control system. How do I set up Mach 3 to control the servos? Thank You  |

| Who told you that? MACH does not work across a serial link to control servos or steppers. If it already has a controller and just needs proper g-code than you need a CAM program that will support DNC (Direct Numerical Control). If you want to "bypass" their controller you are going to have to retrofit the machine with new control electonics. |
