I'm just about done connecting my CNC controller...at least one axis. I wanted to just get my X axis figured out and tuned a little before connecting the others because that gives me the most travel...and thus the most room for error.
Q#1) How can I just send test moves? I half expected to see a set of buttons for moving axis around but none that I could find. Also when I went to the MDI tab, and tried to enter a command, nothing on the screen indicated that it was doing anything though (like the DRO). I was entering something like G0 X10.0[enter].
Q#2) I had no problem simulating moves by uploading a G-code file and running it. But, when I would go to start a file, mach would always stop after the first Z axis lowering. I'd have to hit start again. Is this normal or am I missing something (likely the later)?
