    Set port address a la Mach3

    New to UCCNC. I have been using Mach3 for a while but the erratic nature of it is costing me too much. I cannot get UCCNC to communicate to my controller and I expect the issue is setting the Port Address. In order to get Mach3 working with my pc and controller I had to manually set the Port Address since, despite being LPT1, the actual address for the port is not the usual.

    Is there a method to correct this in UCCNC?

    There is no port address in UCCNC. It connects directly to CNC Drive motion controllers. If you are trying to use UCCNC with a parallel port, it can't. It doesn't use parallel ports.
