you can run spindle without ENC module.
you have to set analog Output in CSMIO plugin config.

Jogging is ok?

if so try some simple GCodes via MDI Input line

Zero your x axis

G1X100F200 will drive x axis to 100 (check the distance)
G1X0F200 will return to Zero (check as it is on the original startpoint)

repeat a couple of times.

you can do quick checks by using the mdi Input line before run gcode

set your x axis Zero

then G1X10 F10
and G1X0 F10 for going back

the you can increase the F value and see when the stalling starts

without any preceise data (Motor Installation, Settings Motortuning, Speed of used G-code ...),
this is all a walk in the dark IMHO.
