Hi Keith, Thank you for your reply. New PC is on the way. So I completely understand how the steps per rev. and the overall turns ratio works in this software. I like that approach much better than mach, I agree. So the .637 may seen low but that is how I had to set it since that is the turns ratio ...

I think I found one. Processor, intel i5-8259U single thread benchmark - 2243 Thoughts? I also have another question. Once I get the new PC. will there be any issues with the license dat file and the new PC or does that only tie to the acorn board. It there an easy way to copy all the config setting...

Yeah, I get that. Does anybody have any recommendations on a computer. Preferably a mini that I can put in my cabinet like now. I would like it to have dual lan ports like the one I have now. One for network and of course one for the corn aboard. Here is a picture of my machine and cabinet. Thank yo...

The computer I am using is a mini pc, core i3 at 1.9 GHz 8 gigs of ram. with a SSD, Is that not adequate?

That could very well be the issue. I know it ran fine with mach 3 but I know that is completely different as well. Thank you for pointing that out.

Ok, Here are both the report and the test file I was using. I hope this is what you need. I am totally new to the acorn board and software. I know this is a strange file because is has so many passes. It was a file that I used the create a counterbore in aluminum at .01 per pass. But it really doesn...

Hello all, I seem to have a problem when I use the g code view as opposed to the graph view. When using the graph view all seems smooth an the way it should be, however when I use the g code view, turn the graph off at times the machine halts and is very jerky almost like it changes to exact stop mo...

It seems to be working correctly now after a reset. Thank you
I will post again if there are any issues I'm not sure of.

Ok, so if they are NO in the axis pairing manual is shows as you said that I can parallel the x,y and z together. The y slave will have its own input but in the available input labels it does not show a slaved y axis option in cnc12 version 4.64. What option would I use for these inputs? Actually. I...

Thank you for your reply. I agree about the basic info. In testing them the blue output wire has 24 volts on it without the presents of a magnet. When the magnet is placed in range the voltage goes away. I was thinking that they are NC but maybe I have it backwards.
