Roberto,
    You want to set your accel and vel. as high as possible in motor tuning. To slow down your jog speed, hit the tab key and change the value where the cursor is at in this screen shot. To rapid jog, hold down the shift key while you jog.

Hey Roberto,
    Go to the config tab in Mach and then motor tuning. Slow them down if they are too fast. I just didn't think there was any such thing as too fast.

Roberto, I don't know about the Automatic part, I have never ran Mach 2. It sounds like it should have told, or asked you if it could update the Mach 2 Xml when you loaded the latest version.

I have sent you a Personal Message.

Very cool indeed. Are you going to track with Mach as well?

The latest is 2.00.049. You can find it at the top of this page, downloads tab. You can manually put in the settings if you wish.

Most of us are using small motors with homemade power supplies and Gecko drives for the motors. This will not accomadate the requirements of you motors. The S&D to analog convertors would take the step and direction pulses produced by Mach and convert them to an analog signal. This would allow you to use the drives you have now. Don't take my word for law, let someone verify this before you proceed.
