I don't know the answer to that one 
Perhaps it's one of the mysteries of Mach3

It's not really that weird.

With your 'steps per unit' setup 0.0050 is your step size and Mach3 will not attempt to make a movement which is smaller than your step size. Essentially 0.0000 and <0.0050 is the same dimension as far as your machine is concerned and that is the way Mach3 is interpreting it.

Hi Victor,

I have every confidence in your ability.
I look forward to seeing some pics of the things you make with your laser.

Something I forgot to mention...

You also need to disconnect the P17 jumper on the breakout board (if it is connected).

Hi Cad cam man,

It would be helpful for easy viewing if you would resize your pictures to 800 x 600 before posting. This thread refers; https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=24585.0

I would be interested to know if there is a solution to this as my timer does exactly the same thing.
