Software installation
1.Mach3 Software installation
1.1 You can install the software we provide :Mach3Version
3.043.066，or download from MACH3's website.
Open our CD，find Mach3 Soft>>Mach3Version3.043.066
，click it to installation.（ see Figure ）
1.2 When you install it, please cancel “Parallel Port Driver ”
option.（see Figure）

Software installation
2.Driver and Configuration file
Please copy the driver file after the software installation is
complete.
Open our Cd，and find the...English manual>>Driver file>>
(Ethernet control card driver is ).Then
copy it to MACH3 software folder...C:/Mach3>>
（see Figure）

NOTE:After you copy the file,all basic parameters have
been set up. Only the motor parameters need to be set.
Please do not modify other parameters.
2.3 Macro code file installation
When you need to control the output port or other macro
code functions, you must copy them to...C:/MACH3>>macros>
>Mach3Mill folder，then you can use them.

3.How to connect card and computer
3.1 How to connect USB port card and computer
Please use the cable that
we provide, and don't
extend it.
NOTE：
Connect the computer and USB card with the USB cable.
There is a work indicator light on the control card. If flashing
means the connection is successful.Or check your computer
device manager>>Human body input device,check whether
there is new equipment added.
3.2 How to connect the Ethernet card and pc
If you use the Ethernet control card, please use the Ethernet
cable we provide.,The Ethernet port on the control card has two
lights, yellow and green,if lighting means conenct is ok.
