Following error is supposed to mean that a servo-controlled machine
was too far from the commanded position. If the machine does not
have encoder feedback, then it means that the parameters in the
xxx.ini file were such that the SIMULATED servo-controlled
machine had that condition. This is because steppermod.o and
freqmod.o (when in open-loop mode) uses a software simulated
servo machine to generate the step pulses. The most common
problem is that DEFAULT_ACCELERATION and MAXIMUM_
ACCELERATION are too high. In inch mode, 20.0 (the default)
is a LOT of acceleration, that's 20 inches/sec/sec! Set it to 2.0 and
try again.

The on-line help should have the error codes in it. Is this an error
code when it is running, or a compiler error when building EMC?
