    Running with a wave driver , too fast?

    Hi, I am using unipolar motors with a wave drive and it seems that turbocnc energises the coils way too fast, in Motion Setup I get "Pulse width = N/A".

    Do I miss anything ? Here is a snip from my ini file:
    [AXIS1]
    Designator=X
    StepIncrement= 1.00000000000000E-0004
    IsLinear=True
    IsStep/Dir=False
    Phases=4
    Phase1=100000000000
    Phase2=010000000000
    Phase3=001000000000
    Phase4=000100000000
    Phase5=000000000000
    Phase6=000000000000
    Phase7=000000000000
    Phase8=000000000000
    Phase9=000000000000
    Phase10=000000000000
    Phase11=000000000000
    Phase12=000000000000
    Phase13=000000000000
    Phase14=000000000000
    Phase15=000000000000
    Phase16=000000000000
    PortAddress=$278
    Acceleration= 3.00000000000000E+0002
    StartSpeed= 1.00000000000000E+0002
    MaxSpeed= 2.50000000000000E+0003
    ABSPrescale= 1.00000000000000E+0000
    Motor Resolution= 200
    Leadscrew Pitch=20.0
    Controller Microsteps= 1
    Gear Reduction= 1.0000

    [AXIS2]
    Designator=Y
    StepIncrement= 1.00000000000000E-0004
    IsLinear=True
    IsStep/Dir=False
    Phases=4
    Phase1=000010000000
    Phase2=000001000000
    Phase3=000000100000
    Phase4=000000010000
    Phase5=000000000000
    Phase6=000000000000
    Phase7=000000000000
    Phase8=000000000000
    Phase9=000000000000
    Phase10=000000000000
    Phase11=000000000000
    Phase12=000000000000
    Phase13=000000000000
    Phase14=000000000000
    Phase15=000000000000
    Phase16=000000000000
    PortAddress=$278
    Acceleration= 3.00000000000000E+0002
    StartSpeed= 1.00000000000000E+0002
    MaxSpeed= 2.50000000000000E+0003
    ABSPrescale= 1.00000000000000E+0000
    Motor Resolution= 0
    Leadscrew Pitch= 0.0
    Controller Microsteps= 0
    Gear Reduction= 0.0000
    What I notice that in the ini file sez resolution = 200 but my steppers are 7.5 degrees step so res=48 is more correct, is it?
    But within the program I cant see that option.

    You can try changing *.ini by hand I suppose..
