What's the idea of using different gasses for piercing,
Sorry it's nothing to do with your question, but am in the middle of setting up a HT2000 here,
I wonder can I change the pins coming out of the pc,
Just so I could rule out any problem with the parallel port,
As I am not using any of the other pins on the port
ie, limits
Yep I have done that with the A pins
When I swap X and Y outputs from the breakout board to the drivers, the problem ends up on the X axis, so I don't think there is any issue on that side,
Which...
Hi all
I think I have a problem with my breakout board

Hi,Craig
Did you find them B2 servo drivers hard to wire,

Ok thanks Craig,
Hopefully Mach 4 is better that the Mach 3 I was running,
It kept lossing steps, and would take the odd idea of running a straight cut of the parts already cut.
Ok,
So just to clear things, as am a dummy when it comes to servo,
Am well experienced in steppers,
The controller I will be going for is not pc based, but has step dir output control.
So do...
