Title: conf. motors
Post by: randybradley on February 16, 2021, 04:47:06 PM

conf.>control> motor> There are no figures for "Counts per unit", "Velocity", "Acceleration". Also, when I try to type in numbers they are not accepted. What am I missing?

I had the same problem. You have to put cursor on the motor and click. It will turn blue.

Thank you for replying to my post, I had 33 people look at it, but only your answer. On the right side panel of the motor page I have my 3 motors check marked. Other than that I don't know what you mean when you say: "Put the curser on the motor and click". Could you clarify that please.

Glad to help if  I can.  Put the cursor directly over Motor 0, not the check box and left click. It should turn blue and boxes that were grayed out should turn white and let you enter your parameters.

I'm very new to Mach4 and struggling with it. I have been using Mach3 for so many years I find the conversion to Mach4 pretty hard to set up and manuals incomplete.
