General Mach Discussion / Help with set up

« on: November 29, 2009, 01:51:50 PM »

Hello I just switched from camsoft to mach3 and I dont know all what I need to do. I didn't do the origional refit on the machine its a tree j300. It has a galil dmc1842 board 100 pin cable. All I have done with this is down load the software and got the card to communicate past that I dont know what I need to do next to get the machine to be under some sort of control. When it starts up now it takes off in all the axis and goes right by the limit/home switches. Any help would be great thanks.  Chris.
