Simulation mode can be accessed by uninstalling or not installing the Parallel Port Driver. If a computer not connected to a machine is used to test code, please use Mach3 in Simulation mode - it will remove the line limit. A license is only required on the computer actually running a machine. Mach1, Mach2, and Mach3 may all be used on one computer, but only one version of each will co-exist on a single computer. For commercial users anybody who uses the software to generate profitwe require a separate license purchase for each machine. Non-commercial users aka hobbyists are permitted to use one Mach license for as many machines as they require. Included with Mach3 are some free Wizards that were contributed by users. Wizards can be written by anyone and are designed to allow users to quickly perform routine or convenient operations without the need to have a pre-written G-Code file. Mach3 is customizable and has been used for many applications with numerous types of hardware. While comprising many advanced features, it is the most intuitive CNC control software available. It is very rich in features and provides a great value to those needing a CNC control package.
