If during launching the Mach3 program, the „CSMIO/IP-M connection” window
will appear, and the „Connection status” light in the diagnostic window flashes
red, it means that the CSMIO/IP-M was not found in the network. In that case,
check some possible reasons:
• The Ethernet cable must be connected to the device before turning on the power. If it was
not – quit the Mach3 program and turn the CSMIO/IP-M power off, connect the Ethernet
cable, wait 10 seconds and launch the Mach3 program again.
• If the CSMIO/IP-M is connected directly to the PC, verify if the network settings are correct
as described in chapter 7. Quit the Mach3 program, verify the setting and change if
necessary, then launch the program again.
• If at least 10 seconds have not passed since turning on the device power until Mach3
launching – then quit the program and launch it again.
• You can try to use a different network cable.
If these tips did not help and there is still no connection, you should contact your distributor or the CS-Lab
company.
10.3 Configuration of axes used in the machine
At the beginning, you should activate the axis which you
are going to use. Select the
„Port and Pins” position from the „Config” menu, and next
go to the „Motor Outputs” tab.
Select the axes, we are using by clicking on „Enabled” -
the green ticks will appear next to them.
• Example 1: 3 axis plotter X, Y, Z.
o Activate the X, Y, Z-axes.
• Example 2: 3 axis plotter X, Y, Z+ rotary A axis.
o Activate the X, Y, Z, A axes
