Thank you for the answer http://www.syil.com.cn/de/productShow.asp?id=505 this is the mill I want to buy. I got a mach3 xml file for a similar machine and had a look. It does not say much to me at the moment and as far as I know the manual does not say much. >From china I did not get an answer about technical stepper data und the man in switzerland will try emc. I am sure emc will work. Before I start fidling around I tought I ask if there is anything finished. Vik

If this machine originally ran with Mach3, the conversion to EMC2 should be pretty easy. You need to find the Mach information that defines the function for each parallel port pin. Then write a .hal file or use Stepconf to set EMC2 to make the same pin assignments.
