Mach3 lathe index and threading.

Trying to get Mach3 turn to work with a UC-300ETH/LPT5/HDBB2. I have an index signal working. When I try and run a G76 it does it prep stuff where it waits for the signal but it never gets the signal. So it sits. The index signal LED lights up when the sensor activates on the diagnostics page as well as the plugin status.

Thanks
Derek

Hi Terry

I seem to remember really early on when I was still using mach, the index signal needed to go to a specific pin number for the plugin to work. I could be confusing things though as that was a while ago.
