Title: Please look at my xml file and tell whats wrong.
Post by: skylane on October 08, 2012, 07:50:14 PM

I have mach 3 running on a small 3 axis router through a Gecko 540, I have had this system running with a hobbycnc board, I have all motors running and moving properly, all limit and home switches work but when I call for reference all, the motors move at a snails pace and growl loudly. Sounds like they are getting very low voltage?? I must have missed something in the ports and pins setup. If you see something wrong please let me know, I am stumped.
Thanks for any help you can offer
Terry

All your axis are set to a maximum speed of 25ipm, and the homing speeds are 20% of that (50% for the X).

You need to set up the acceleration and velocity for all your axis in Motor Tuning.
