    1.Prepare:
    1.1.Installation the Mach3:

    Open the CD, find mach3 software，run the installation file：

    Follow the prompts to install, until the last step.

    The last step requires Note: For 64-bit computer, it is best not to select”LoadMach3 Driver “this

    one, because it will cause the system to prompt installation errors.


    1.2.Software license application:

    Copy license files “Mach1Lic.dat” from “mach3 software folder”,to C:\Mach3 Cover the original
    file,Reset Computer （ must reset the computr,please don't open the software dircetly! ） Way
    above the license for DIY or study purposes only, not for commercial use.

    1.3. Installation the software of the USB motion card:


    This USB motion card does not need install any USB driver,Windows2000/XP/Windows7,can

    directly identify.
    1.3.1 Connecting the USB cable to the PC and the motion card:
    The first installation of motion control card, take about 10s, when the green led lights on motion

    control card, indicating that the connection is successful, return the following tips when you install

    on your computer:

    1 2
    1.3.2 Installing the motion card plug-in.
    Unzip the usb move.zip, copy or drag RnRMotion.dll into your Mach3\PlugIns folder.

    1.3.3 Start the Mach3 software, a dialogue of “Motion Control Hardware PlugIn sensed!” is

    shown. Please select the“Bl-Usbmach3-V2.1”, you can also check”Don't ask me

    this again”.
    2.config for mach3:
    2.1 Mach3 X、 Y、 Z、 A Axis config as shown below: Config => Ports
    and Pins):
    2.2 Motor tuning setup as shown below: (Config => Motor Tuning)

    Axis direction, depends on the “Reversed”

    Axis direction:
    Depends on ”√ ”
    or ”X”

    2.4 Setup the input signal：

    There are 4 general-purpose input channels. The channels number is from I1 to I4.

    Example of input signal settings: I1 is connected to emergency stop switch, I2 is connected to 4 axis

    limit switches, I3 is connected to 4 axis home switches, I4 is connected to auto tool zero, set as shown
    below:

    2.5 Setup the Output signals:

    There are 4 general-purpose (open-drain) output channels, The channels number is from O1 to

    O4, mach3 setup as shown below:


    2.6 Spindle speed control (0-10V) Setup:

    There is 0-10v signal output on the control card, Can be used to connect the Inverter to control
    the spindle speed.

    According to the actual parameters of the inverter and the spindle, set the maximum spindle

    speed (for example,24000RPM). As shown below:The Mach3 Menu => Config => Spindle pulleys：

    Setup Spindle parameters: as shown in the red box

    Enable spindle output. as shown below:


    Completion of the setting, there are two ways to control the output value of 0 ~ 10V.

    1. Using the S command. Such as S20000 (the speed to 20000RPM)

    2. Using the Mach3 interface control (input Spindle Speed, and adjust Percentage SRO's). Figure:
