Bob,
Congratulations on your perseverance and ultimate success!!
Add another person to the list of people running on EMC.
It looks as if the RT script must have done the job. There is not a whole
lot you can do without having a machine connected. If you want you can take
a g-code program and run it. That will at least let you see the coordinates
move around. You can copy the code on the 1st project page in my web site.
