    syil x2 using mach3 possibly config problem - need xml file

    Hi, I have just bought a new Syil X2 and was told that the xml file is readily available to communicate with Mach3... I have tried looking everywhere with limited success and had no response from Syil when I contacted them early last week.

    In desperation, I tried to create a new XML file using the very poor and badly spelt information within the user document that comes with the mill. This has allowed me to get the X,Y and z comms working to a degree. I am unable to get the spindle to work at all although I can hear a relay clicking???

    Has anyone had similar problems and fixed it or even better, does someone have their XML file that works which would save me a heap of trouble!

    Did not know Syil made X2's

    May be they did or may be it is a kit of sorts?

    Did you try some of the SX3 profiles?

    Take some clear photos of all of the circuit boards.
    Without that, we don't know what you have.

    You say X,Y and Z work to some degree?
    Does that mean it is temperature dependent????
    Save your XML file. At least that part does something.
    Super X3. 3600rpm. Sheridan 6"x24" Lathe + more. Three ways to fix things: The right way, the other way, and maybe your way, which is possibly a faster wrong way.
