Hi There, I'm Fred from the Netherlands and jumped just into the wondrous world of Mach3.
I downloaded the demoversion a few days ago, went through all the fantastic instructionvideo's on line (great for dyslectic people like me) and set up my 3 axes milling machine.
Before ran the mill under CNCprofi. it worked ok, but running under MS Dos it is extremely outdated.
My problem:
I'd setup the machine. and in motor tuning and setup i did like the video told me. played along with the XYZ values, steps per (100 for X) velocity (1320 for X) and acceleration (515 for X). All axes are running ok in jogging modus at 100% speed. Sound ok and can't stop them by hand.
In the settingswindow (Alt6) i ran a axis callii bration and everything seems ok.
If i run a demo job, a G-coded job from Devwing, or a gcode coming from lazycam the speed is about 10% of the speed i have in jogging modeSpindle speed is set to 100%. Can anyone give me a clue where to look ? there are just too many windows for newbees
PS i know that 100 steps is very low, but that was the value coming from the settingswindow,
Thanx in Advance
Fred
