It's a shame I gave away the switch and cables with the old pc but the new owner may have them spare if you want me to check?

I'm not sure how easy it is to get 25 way printer switches these days, by the time you've found one and the necessary cable it might be as cheap to buy another uc100. It may depend on the drive capability of the uc100 and the cable length. I used to work like this when using the parallel port on an xp machine so in principle it should be ok. Is the switch likely to affect performance? Anybody done this? ![]() I'd like to use a single Win10 PC for both. ![]() I'm wondering about using the UC100 motion controller with a printer/parallel cable switch so that I don't have to physically plug/unplug the two machines.Īt the moment I have a Triac mill running Mach3/parallel port and a Stepcraft router running with UCCNC via UC100, on separate PCs. ![]()
