I had my hard drive crash on me last week and the computer was on its last legs so I ended up finding another one. I got a laptop that had the parallel port installed. I was able to reload Mach3 but for some reason when I tried to reload my XML file it would not work and I ended up going through everything and getting it all setup again....to a point. The last time I had an issue I took photos of all my settings through the ports and pins, general config, motor tuning etc. Once I set everything up, created my profile it works. Once I tried it with the torch I got nothing, the only way to get the torch to file was to start it manually. I have the output #1 set at port 1 pin 17 and output 2 set at port 1 pin one. I saved my emails from the mfg of my table precision plasma and that is also the way he stated to set it as well. I use a Geckodrive G540 as my driver. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
