    Backlash Question. V4.0.1

    I have set backlash on all three axes. When TurboCNC reaches the end of its movement in a given direct it reverses the direct of the stepper motors. I presume it is now doing the backlash compensation. It however does this correction at a very high speed. Is it possible to slow this down?

    Backlash movement speed is hard coded and you will have to reprogram and recompile. If I remember correctly it is done at "max speed"

    Yes, Bubba is correct. This used to be done at the slowest speed, but folks complained about that too, so in the next release I plan to make the backlash comp speed configurable as well.
