Mach3 XML Files [Archived]


Please Note

These instructions are applicable for Mach3, our previous CNC control software. If you are setting up your CNC control PC with Mach4, please see our Mach4 CNC Software Setup Guide.


These XML configuration files provide an easy way to set up Mach3 to work with our various hardware and electronics packages.

While some tweaks may be required for your particular setup, these files will get you most of the way there. Any changes you make to the Mach setup can be saved to the XML file using the Config->Save Settings menu selection.


XML Configuration Files

The XML file you need is based on the following:

  1. The Model of your CNC Machine
    1. CRP - Standard CNC Machines
    2. PRO - PRO CNC Machines
    3. BTS - Benchtop Standard CNC Machines
    4. BTP - Benchtop PRO CNC Machines
  2. Electronics Version
    1. CRP800 - our Plug and Play NEMA 23 CNC Control System or Plug and Play NEMA 34 CNC Control System.
    2. CRP100 - DIY packages with our NEMA 23 motors and Leadshine MX3660, Leadshine MX4660, or Gecko G540 stepper drivers.
  3. Motor Type
    1. NEMA 34 motors with 1/2" shafts
    2. NEMA 23 motors with 3/8" shafts
    3. NEMA 23 motors with 1/4" shafts
  4. Note: For machines with NEMA 23 motors, our NEMA 23 Stepper Motors with 3/8" Shafts are standard and always recommended. Unless you specifically requested 1/4" shaft motors with your order, you should have 3/8" shaft motors.
  5. Cutting Tool
    1. Spindle
    2. Router
    3. Plasma

Important Notes

  • For custom CNC machine sizes, simply choose the configuration for the closest machine size available below and adjust the soft limit settings accordingly.
  • If you have and difficulty identifying your CNC Machine Model, Electronics version, Motor Type, or Cutting Tool, please Contact Us and we will be happy to help!
  • If you purchased a dual-purpose machine, you will need two configuration files, one for each cutting tool. For example, one for Spindle and one for Plasma (with all other machine details identical)
  • The default speeds in the configuration files we provide below are set to very conservative initial values. As you work and become more familiar with your CNC machine, you can adjust these settings to achieve the much faster rapid an cutting speeds that your machine is capable of achieving.

Please use the following filters to narrow the options to those applicable for your machine.

* For CRP800 electronics purchased before July 2015, you will need the "revA" version of the XML configuration, all newer systems will need the "current" version.

Our archived configuration files also include options with these older electronics systems:

  • CRP300 - DIY packages with our NEMA 34 motors, Gecko G201X or G203V drivers, and PMDX-126 breakout boards.
  • CRP500 - Older versions of our Plug and Play electronics systems built prior to February 2015, with our NEMA 23 motors paired with our CRP5042 digital drivers and breakout board, in the same NEMA enclosure as our current CRP800 systems.

Installation Instructions

Please Note

If you are running any of our electronics or systems with the Ethernet SmoothStepper and Mach3, please refer to the Mach3 CNC Software Setup Guide for installation and configuration instructions.

Install XML Configuration File

  1. Close Mach3 if it is currently running.
  2. Download and save/copy the XML configuration file(s) you require from the links in the table above into your Mach3 installation folder (default: C:\mach3)
    Copy XML configuration files
  3. Once copied, double-click the "Mach3 Loader" icon on your desktop.
    Open Mach3
  4. The new profile(s) will now appear in a list of selectable profiles. Highlight the profile you wish to use and hit "Ok" to load it.
    Select Mach3 profile
  5. When Mach3 loads, you should now see the profile name in the lower right hand corner of the screen in a box labeled "profile".

Enable the Z Home / Z+ Limit Switch (if equipped)

Our current XML Configuration files are pre-configured for a Z Home / Z+ Limit, however the switch is disabled by default. To enable it:

  1. Open the Config Menu, select the "Ports and Pins" option, and navigate to the "Input Signals" tab.
    Mach3 Ports and Pins tab
  2. Check the "Enabled" setting for the "Z++" and "Z Home".
