Hi. Just received NVEM version 2 for 3 to 6 axis bought from Aliexpress. The shipping cardboard box was damaged and there is a big scratch on the CD and my PC just won't read the disk at all. I posted to the seller for the files but they do not reply. Is there a friendy person here who could post or have a download link to the latest NVEM Mach3 Ethernet driver and what ever other stuff there is on the CD? I have a commercial Mach3 so what I really need are the driver and manuals.

PS. I made a dispute to Aliexpress and they gave me tree days to reply and decide whether I take a $20 refund or ship the whole thing back for full refund. Shipping it back to China form Finland would cost 44€, so which ever choice I make it would be a bad deal if I can't find the driver and get the thing working. My first Aliexpress purchase, not a very promising start there.

Found the recommended EC500 driver and EVEM V2 manual from the manufacturers site https://www.nvcnc.net. I'm exited to see if this thing will be good enough in the end to replace my two parallel ports and two BOBs which limited the speeds of my servos.

So far Mach3 has accepted the driver and responds to Emergency input and Digitize inputs from EVEM inputs which I'm able to test on my drawing board with a Dell laptop. When starting I saw plenty of LAN traffic between PC and NVEM but no communication between Mach3 and EVEM and nothing worked. After completely disabling Firewall (for both Private and Public networks) communication started to work.

I have the NVEM V2s IP at 192.168.1.11 which is in the same IP address space my router uses so I wonder how that can work if the WIFI is enabled at the same time? (Can't test that as my Dell laptop automatically disables WIFI if LAN cable is plugged in.) Would like to hear about that if someone has the knowledge. Next step is to get things working on an old Win10 32bit PC for Mach3 and also get a new iHSV86 servo motor to run with EVEM.

Just a follow up for someone else struggling with these: Mach3 runs fine on Win10 32bit and NVEM seems to communicate fine too on wired LAN even with WIFI on at the same time. Will there be conflicts remains to be seen. As a plus with the 32bit Windows 10 2004 version I set up for this old PC with Athlon processor and 2G RAM, my age old Acad Lite 97 runs now fine on Win10 (!) and even Office 97 runs on it.
