Weird Mach3 + CSMIO/IP-M Probe Problem

[Davek0974]

I've had several users that had issues with CS Labs controllers and the 2010 Screenset.

Yep, in particular do not use the wizards, instant trouble.

In the end i made up my own custom screen set with just the functionality i needed.

That’s the whole ideea! For me, a simple piece of metal to put on the working surface is more than enough. I’m still using the MechMate router with no problem but with this fancy CSMIO controller all became a huge problem. On the other hand, I like their products and I don’t want to go back to PMDX stuff.

You can use the wizards but they need to be converted into Mach screens - something in the CSMIO chain does not like pop-up windows, no idea why but after getting rid, my system worked perfectly

The 2010 screenset is excellent, just does not play 100% with CSMIO

If I owned a CS Labs board, I'd switch over to their SIM CNC software.

Agree.

I keep following the development, have the trial license too. It still does not do enough to replace my custom Mach3 setup though, yet.

I have lots of custom stuff with tool length comp being passed to the knee axis and so on. Last time i checked SimCNC still didn't offer that level of tweak-ability ;)

For a standard setup though I would go straight for it.
