Hi, all I was asking the stepper motor to do was move a set distance, so I could measure it and set the steps. Unlike mach3 mill, mach3 turn doesn’t have an automatic calibration system. The only way to set the steps is by asking the motor to move, measure and adjust until you get the right number of steps. I did not know that I had to also input a speed. I just had the idea that the motor would move at the same speed it did when jogging. Is this not correct? I am trying to follow a video on utube by a chap who went through this process. But like many things so much is left out. And the mach3 manual is very grey in this area.
