 Hi does the computer that you are using  for your cnc have a parallel port? if it does then you will also need a BOB(breakout board) if not the you will need something like a smooth stepper or the UC100. Really a G540 is the easiest rout.

OK this is what I did. I opened mach3 then when to operator/vb script editor. I then copy and pasted the auto tool zero script( I found on the web and changed the plate thickness to suit my needs) into the the form. I saved it as M701.m1s to C:\Mach3/macros/Your profile( this is the profile that you are using to run your cnc). then went to config/config plugins and selected the xbox config. I selected the right shoulder button and in the drop down menu, selected custom macro #1. In the custom macro macro #1 field I put M701.m1s.  So what happens when you push the right shoulder button it calls the M701.m1s macro. Hope this makes sense. Let me know if I can help further.

 I would set your drivers to the nearest  current setting without going over. so I think it would be 3.2.
