Hi Basil,
The next step is to decide if you will be working in Metric or Imperial units and calculating your Steps per Unit - there is a calculator here; http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,16315.0.html
Once that is done then fine tune everything (setting Velocity & Acceleration in Motor Tuning) to obtain best and 100% reliable performance.
All this is best done with reference to the Mach3 manual as I have only mentioned the basics here.
