I have to configure the ports for all the machines, I have easyDNC4.7 installed on my laptop and use it for backing up my machines. I have been going around and performing a port scan every time I go to a new machine. Can I add more machines or is the 4 machines in the bar the max we can have?

The bar just below the machine icons can be dragged up and down to expose more space for machines. You've probably clicked the add machine button a few times and all those machine icons will become visible when you drag the bar down.
But even then there is a max of 14 machines.
I too have a large number of machines but they are in groups. There's a row of horizontal machining centres. A group of lathes and a different shop with some verticals.
What I've done is create 3 work folders and in each folder I've placed a copy of the easydnc.exe file. Each one of those has up to 14 machines.
Anyone with so many machines probably has them split into groups or departments so putting them into a separate folders kind of makes sense and just reflects what I've got on the ground and doing it that way means you can have an unlimited number of machines.
