Thank you Gary,

   They have already been in contact with CandCNC, and they are still 
having troubles with getting everything to work in MACH3.  I am trying 
to do a postmortem on what they have already tried, but with very little 
luck.

   I am building up a old computer that I can load LinuxCNC on, so that 
I won't disturb their current setup.  Hopefully, I will know something 
more the next time I head south.
