Wireless MPG Setup

Post by DrDave »

Hi,
I have just tried to install my MPG-4 on my computer, but I fell at Step4. When I open cncWizard, I do not have tab 4 as "Control Peripherals". All I have is:
1 - Primary System Configuration
2 - Axis Configuration
3 - Spindle Setup
4 - Advanced Axis Configuration
5 - DB25 Signal Mapping

I have tried installing the USB receiver in different USB ports and rebooting the PC (and Acorn), but cannot get the desired Tab. What might I be doing wrong?
Regards
Dave

Problem is you are running CNC12 4.10, not been supported for some time.
You need to upgrade to 4.50

That was it. Upgraded to 4.50 (with some huffin' & puffin') & the MPG is working now.
Thank you

Thank you
It's a little different. The Wizard as you found is now in the Utilities menu. Glad you got upgraded ok.
Enjoy!
