That appears to be a servo machine.
Can you describe the rest of the system? What interface are you using between the engraver and the PC?

I'm using the LPT port to connect to the machine if that is what you mean. I checked the machine manual but it does not have the information i need to place on pncconfig : :(

If you are using the LPT port then PNCConf is not the right software, that is purely for Mesa cards.

The machine can run standalone from memory cards, I am pretty sure that the port you are trying to use is only for transferring image/program data.

LinuxCNC is a machine controller. it is not a system for transferring program data to a machine controller.

It is almost certainly possible to control the machine with LinuxCNC, but you would need to remove the installed controller and connect directly to the servo motor drives.
