    Hi!
    I am finally getting somewhere with my CNC Project and right now i am comparing the Csmio IP-M with the Ethernet smoothstepper from Warp9. Got some questions that i was hoping someone could help me with...

    The CSMIO IP-M is interesting although it lacks functions that the smoothstepper has got. On the other hand, maybe i dont need em?

    1 - I know what homing is but what does homing on "index" mean?
    2 - The IP-M does not have backlash compensation. Is this a big "-" compared to the Ethernet smoothstepper or can this function somehow be implemented from Mach 3?
    3 - Same goes for the ability to Control spindle speed. Can this also be done from Mach 3 in some way?

    Thanks JW
