    USB CNC

    I recently purchased chinese CNC with T-D 3 Axis controller and I tried to connect it to my PC and run the CNC but the computer doesn't read the controller.
    The CNC has parallel port LPT type, and I connected the controller with LPT to USB cable but it doesn't work.
    I'm using a PC with windows 10 and mach3 software.
    I'm attaching pictures of the cable and the controller ports.
    Thanks a lot,
    Tom.

    Hi buddy, this is most probably Hardware Issue, so the best way will be to take it offline for the repair.

    Ok, to setup a usb cnc board, you need to have a usb driver, usually RNRMotion.DLL. Especially if the board is a bitsensor type board, or an equivalent. An LPT port will not work with a usb board.
