No optical sensor set up yet, I tested RPM's with my tach.
You tell Mach 3 your max RPM per pulley (config>spindle pulleys)
Choose the one you are running at the time, and the C6 board adjusts the voltage based on the Speed chosen in the program (or set in the Spindle box on the main page) to vary the RPM.
Don't know how accurate it all is yet, but will.
I make a little video today perhaps.
