i got my 6040 cnc today, and it came without any manual for mach 3 setup included. I got one CD with the manual for USBcnc and a pirated copy of usbcnc aswell. Since i have a registered mach 3 version and i really like the programm i would like to continue using mach 3.
I just got a parallel port to usb cable without the parallel port to parallel port from controller to computer.
That was strange. And it also didnt come with a pirated mach 3 copy like they usually do.
Previously i had a 3020 and a3040 cnc that ran great on my computer.
Since i dont have any documentations for pins and ports setup, i really just left the previous options that actualy seem to be the same.
Like for example:
X Axis - Step /Dir - 2/3
Y Axis - Step/Dir - 4/5 .....
It will not move! Doesnt matter what i do it doesnt move. I even tried the e stop to set it to pin 10 but it doesnt do anything. Does anyone have the manual for this board??? Or atleast any advice how to fix it???
Here is the video of the machine and the controller box. Something doesnt work here. The E-stop can not connect to mach 3 and the z probe doesnt work aswell. All three axis are not moving. I have allready set the correct pin numbers atleast in the axis, but still it doesnt work.
I have hooked up my controll box of my 3040 and it works with it. Here the video: https://youtu.be/xxVbfefDdnA
