I finally stepped out and put some energy into a new build for myself. Got mach 3 loaded and all 4 of the nema 23 steppers all moving in the right + & - directions. Have them tuned but still playing with that function and tweaking it. Have them pretty close to moving at the incremental distance the DRO is reading but I still need to tram everything in. Here's what I'm attempting to do now and can't seem to figure out how. I'll attach a picture of my machine so hopefully a visual will help also.
I have an A drive set up on the X and I want to change the A axis to my spindle drive in the mach software so that I can program it for different speeds of constant turning. This is just one of the fixtures that I will build and use on this machine.
I tried signing up for the mach support forums but can't seem to get the stupid activation email from them. I'm already a member here so was hoping I could find some help.
Any help at configuring the mach software to allow me to be able to do this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards Dave
