FAQs / Newby needs help with Jog Step.

« on: April 18, 2013, 02:12:11 PM »

Hi, I'm new to this forum and Mach3. 
I'm in the process of converting my SX3 mill to CNC. Before I connect the PC to the M/C I  thought I would load Mach3 on my PC and try it out as a stand alone.
It is probably my inexperience but I can't get the jog to move in incremental steps. The DRO's seem to move OK when Jog constant but don't work in Step. Whats wrong?.
Can somebody please walk or "Step" me trough the Jog modes?
Thanks Chris
