Hey guys.
I'm sorry I haven't been able to think up of a better name for this thread, but my friend has just got his HY-3040 and we just can't get it to work properly.
Thing is, when the machine is not connected to the PC and I use the control pad that came with it, it reacts nicely to all the controls. X, Y, Z and A axes work.
However, when I connect the machine using the printer port and try to control it using the same pad, the machine moves in all axes at once. I tried checking whether Mach3 'sees' the machine at all, but when I tried using the 'Automated setup of pins' option Mach3 couldn't get any signal back from the machine (even though the machine moved and spinned wildly).
I've enabled the legacy plug n play detection for that LPT1 port, tried reinstalling Mach3 and restarting the PC several times, but I just can't get this thing to work.
I am sure I'm missing something incredibly simple here, could someone please lend a helping hand?
Thanks a lot
