Re: DIY CNC Plasma Controller
I am going to configure Mach 3 to work with my controller to do some testing. I'll see if I have the same/similar issues.

Re: DIY CNC Plasma Controller
Installed the AXBB-e mach 3 plugin and it flashed my AXBB firmware (maybe there is a mach 3 specific version). I configured Mach 3 to work with the new controller. Right away I notice there is a delay when the M3 command is turned on. There is no delay turning it off (m4). I tried changing the M3 output to a different relay but it still had the delay. I have some other buttons mapped to turn on/off relays and they work with no perceptible delay.

Re: DIY CNC Plasma Controller
I hooked up the old controller (Mach 3 config is the same except for ports and pins). There is no delay turning M3 on. In fact you can here the M3 relay turn on before the light on the mach 3 screen lights up.
