I understand a bit of how to tune a linear axis, i mean either of the x, y or z axis from the motor tuning dialog.
I did this with a dial guage attached to an axis and then with Mach3 told the axis to move 1 mm and then fed back the dial guage measurement into Mach3 and it did the necessary motor tuning calculations. I mean it calculated the steps / mm.
Now I need it to do for the A axis, but have no idea how to connnect a dial guage to a rotary axis. I though it should have been in angles but Mach 3 shows the same mm dialog for rotary axis like the linear axis.
So if I tell mach3 to move A axis by 1mm how do i measure 1mm movement on the A axis with a dial guage?
Thanks in advance.
