Safety Notes:
The control board is DC powerelectronics of the designed to accept ONLY.
Ensure connections are made correctly that the positive and negative before
ing the unit. Incorrect wiring will cause damage to the board.power on
an open circuit design. D allow The control board is o not conductive objects
such as pieces of wire stray pieces of to touch any of part of small or metal
the circuit Mount inside an inclosure using insulated (plastic) stand offs or .
insulating pads. Do not mount directly to any conductive metal or aluminum
plates. Handle with care, do not drop or touch the electronic parts on the board.
Keep the board from damp environment.
Keep the board in adequate ventilation.
Keep the board from mechanical damage.
Note: the DB25-1205M, has a male 25 pin line printer port input to be used
with a female parallel printer cable.
It can not be used with serial printer cables, usb to serial printer cord adapters,
or any other cable that is not a parallel printer cable .
If your computer does not come with a DB25 parallel printer port, one may be
installed.
To avoid frustration be sure you have the right cable.

Usage:
The control board is designed for MACH3 DB25-1R5AM CNC
and other CNC programs that utilizes the ssoftware computer
DB25 er port. line print The control board is extensively used
industry. S sin the CNC uch as CNC engraving machine ,
CNC lathes CNC lasma cutting machine CNC laser engraving, ,p s
etc. machine CNC milling machines s , ,
The use of the DB25-1R5AM is designed to put an isolation
buffer between the computers sensitive electronics and the high
current and voltages of the control (motor) drivers. The board
also aids in making easy connections of the line printer port and
to help boost signal strength.

Features:
This must be energized to operate the control board.
3 One relay is designed into the . board that can be programmed
a to control external equipment such as solenoid valve cooling,
A secondary power supply (24VDC) requiredpump and so on. is
to energize the relay on the board and for signal inputs. This is used

Note: this power source is not required if the relays are not intended
for use.
4 . Five signal ports are isolated by optocouplers which can be used
for switches, switches, limit position finding origin points, starting
emergency and stopping.

(5 Axis control). T can also be programmed to be used as single hey
outputs (input. Some ports are communally designed for two functions
or output)
and should be selected as required by the user.

Note: The DB25M-3R6A is equipped with a USB port. This port is for
supplying power to the board. It is not used for any communication
with the computer or with the board. It is strictly used as a power supply
input.
