    Question Converting to UCCNC & UC300ETH-LPT5 (From Mach3/PP/SS)

    Hello,

    Just getting things setup up and running with the new hardware/software.

    I had the system up and running with Mach3 and through the parallel port.
    I was loosing steps due to the PP card issues.
    I got a hold of a smoothstepper for a week and had it running with a couple of clicks.
    Everything works no wiring issues...

    -----

    Now I have a UC300ETH-LPT5 and the software loaded up and plugged in, UC300 detects (And flash auto updated)
    Everything powered up, everything connected and I created a new profile and imported my Mach3 profile.
    (PP cable plugged into port 1 of the UC300)

    The limit switches work. The emerg stop works. The probe works (all signalling correctly through the Diags page)
    The motors lock up, but wont turn? Can't get the spindle to cycle on/off.

    I can't change the STEP/DIR pins, when I change them and click apply, they revert back to zero.

    Thoughts?
    Thanks!
