The Wizards are a set of macros that let you quickly create GCode to do common
tasks such a bolt circles, pockets, etc. You will almost certainly find these useful.
Installing the Wizards also installs the Mach3 Addons for Mill, although they require a
separate license for activation. The XMLs are the files that hold Mach3’s configuration
information. There are three default .XML files: Mach3Mill.xml, Mach3Turn.xml, and
Mach3Plasma.xml. These give you a known starting point for creating your own
custom profiles. ArtSoft USA STRONGLY recommends you create custom profiles of
your own instead of modifying the default profile(s). If you have previously modified
one or more of the default profiles, however, and do not want to overwrite your
configuration information, you should uncheck the XMLs box.
LazyCam is a beta-release free importer included with Mach3. Its purpose is to
import standard dxf, cmx, and other file types to allow those that do not use CAM
programs to more easily generate GCode to be run under Mach3. You do not need it
to run the Mach3 software. The Screen Sets define Mach3’s screen appearance.
