Does this SX controller hook up directly to your computer, or are you using an adapter of some kind, like a UC-100?
Please add details.
Did it ever work ?
What happens when the machine starts, pc starts, mach3 stars ?
Describe all hw as well as You can.
Can you get a zoom video with me to look at the hw ?
Hi. The only way to get it to do anything is using the cncusb software. Using a laptop I can get it to move but it hardly moves and the motors are a bit noisy. The crank handles move more than the cnc moves. If I try using Mach3 the numbers will change but it does nothing at all to the motors. We can use Zoom.What do you Charge?? Here is my email address.

If it's got its own control software installed, it's probably best to try to get that to work first, rather than uninstalling it and substituting Mach3. Have you got access to the settings, like velocity and acceleration? If so, can you reduce both by half and see if it jogs any better? It might just be trying to go too hard, too fast for the motors it's got. Who sold you this thing, and don't they provide any support?
