Title: how to set steps per inch
Post by: widpyro on January 10, 2011, 06:00:33 PM
I need help calibrating my machine. What method is used to determine steps required to travel 1 inch?


2nd question is how to increase the speed the table moves at when instructed to "go home"?

thanks,

Try the Excel Sheet from this thread

To increase speed, goto config menu and choose motor tuning

you will find velocity and accel for each axis.

Don't forget to save each time for each axis
