Well been trying to get the machine to work only to find that there is something seriously amiss with it. Firstly the emergency stop button does absolutely nothing when pressed.

Secondly the x axis isnt working properly. It spins the motor for a second then stops, but the illustration on the screen is still moving.

A few people have said that this is a cheap planet cnc copy and that they are basically crap. I have spoken to planet cnc and they have said it is hit and miss if these controllers work or not, they have recommended buying one of their control boxes.

Has anyone had any experience with these? Are they any good? Cost 550e so it more than i paid for the whole machine but if its worth it then I will get one.

Any help would be great.

p.s. sorry for spamming the forum with my novice crap :-(
