Hi Alan, Yes, I do always start up TurboCNC, then the controller. And shutdown the way you described. Of course, the spindle starts up with the controller...

Hi Mark, I don't get that with TurboCNC. How is your SSS wired? I use a 10K or so pull-up resistor to +5V. Pin 1 of the printer port thus pulls down the...
Hello Alan, I was still talking in reference to pin 8 in my last append. My solid state relay is wired and configured the same as yours but still using pin 8....
Hi Mark, No idea what state pin would be in, it is driven by a latch, and would be random until a value is sent to it. We might be seeing the BIOS initialize...

Alan, Mark: The first write by TurboCNC to the ports follows the configuration file read. The values are set to logic low, then the bits are overwritten with...
Version 4 executes the arcs much faster. Perhaps it is a combination between your system mechanicals and the faster arcs that are causing your lost steps....
Hi Tony, OK, that's the way I would have expected it to work (see the start of this thread) but am not seeing that for pin 8. Does this mean then that there is...
HI Tony, Mark, That raises my question as well, Tony, you calculate inactive states for the command port, do you also calculate them for the data port? That...

Hi Dave, Tony, et. al., I think we've got two threads going on here, one to get the printer port set up early (so the spindle doesn't come on unexpected), and...
