    Creat new Machine Set-up,

    When I load KCam on my Windows 98 Computer it works OK after I set up the motor steps, Pin set ups and so on. I can even cut a part with it.

    Tomorrow, when I open it up it will have defaulted back to its "out of the box" settings and will not let me change it !

    I will then have to delete the program from the machine and re load it from scratch.

    I have ask "Kelly" about this and he told me with BOLD LETTERS, that I need to creat a new machine setup?

    I guess every Cow Boy in the country knows how to do this except me ?

    First off, I don't know what he is talking about. Second, I don't know how to do it!

    Can sombody help me?

    Here is a link that will show you how to create and save a new machine setup. Just read the installation manual and follow the instructions. This will help.
