Art,

Not sure if that reply was for me, but I did have to increase step pulse to 5us in Mach3 before I could get it to smooth out.  I couldn't figure out where to change that parameter though.

Hi Art,

I purchased your plugin last night and got through the initial setup rather quickly.  I've been working with Mach3 (Demo) for some time now with no issues, but I'm ready to purchase the full version and wanted to move to Mach4 since the prices are pretty close.  When using the jog ball inside your plugin, the machine moves and sounds a bit better than when I'm running Mach3.  Problem is when I attempt to jog in Mach4, the motors noise picks up substantially and the movement doesn't seem as smooth.  It seems as if it might be a communications problem between Mach4 and your driver.  Any ideas?  I'd like to stick with Mach4 if possible as I like the new interface.  Any suggestions you can offer are appreciated.

Jason
