Configure Motion Controller

Please refer to your motion controller's documentation to:

  • Establish the network connection to the MachPro computer
  • Connect and configure drives
  • Connect and configure I/O
  • Calibrate the axes
  • Establish machine zero
  • Configure soft limits

MachPro needs to be integrated with your motion controller. If you have an M31 use the M31 Motion Control Setup Manual If you have a compatible motion controller, then use MachPro Compatible Motion Controller Configuration Settings

Languages

MachPro Version 2026.5.13.1 and greater

You may change the display language for the MachPro screen labels and buttons. This is an English-to-target-language word mapping feature, and you may freely switch between available languages. We will add more languages as there is a need. If you see something in your language that would be better translated with a different word or phrase, please submit a ticket so we can update it. support@mach-labs.com

If your CNC experience and training was primarily in English, it may be easier to configure MachPro while it is running in English. When the system is ready for daily operations, switch to an appropriate language for the operators. Be thoughtful in changing the display language. Use it as a tool to simplify your operations.

  • From the main MachPro screen, pull down the Operator menu and click Select Language
  • You need to restart MachPro after selecting a new language
