General Mach Discussion / what am I doing wrong?

« on: December 03, 2008, 03:23:31 PM »

just upgraded to last .020 release (for turn) and found that in the feed d.r.o. the value is going sky high instead of keeping the programmed feed.
I copyed and paste the old configuration file .xlm from 1.84.02 version, may be this is the problem?
