    I have went through all the cables, and connections. Even tried some new cables. I have full movement and control over the table. The power lights are on. I am getting a series of lights when I put it in test mode.....UP and ARC ON flash three times, then it switches to DOWN and ARC ON for three times and repeats. I feel like it is a communication issue and have checked out the serial/parallel port settings and compared them to the Mach manual. I thought it could be a software/driver issue too.....

    I am not sure if your DB25 port is right. Check your control panel/system/hardware profile and see if you have a port conflict.

    Go over the limit switch section to make sure you limit switch setting isnt causing a conflict. When triggered the limit and X home or X limit should only light up

    Ok so we dont believe its a cable issue. Start at the back and disconnect the PWM box from the control box.

    Not a laptop
    Uninstalled and Reinstalled the Parallel and Serial ports
    Ports configured correctly
    Limit switches not the problem and disabled.
    Removed and Installed Software again with out PWM hooked up.


    What am a I looking for after I disconnect the PWM?

    Are you using a secondary parallel port card? Not a motherboard mounted one?
