RE: [!] Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: 3drouters - desperately seeking sign

Hi,

The default for the Z-axis is Page Up/Page Down. Many of the keyboard
commands can be changed in the software - go into Config on the top
menu, then System Hotkeys. Click on the button beside the action, and
tap the key you want to use.

The scaling is set in Config / Motor Tuning. Doesn't sound like you have
any documentation with this unit, but trial error will get you there.
The default 'Steps per' is 2000 (200 full steps X 10 threads to the
inch). This is the number of impulses required to turn the leadscrew one
revolution. You need to change this value to suit the setup though - the
driver card will be set for full step, or something like 2, 4, 8, 16
micro-steps.

You can also scale the motion on the main page - just enter the factor
into the Scale (defaults to +1.000) beside the DRO's.

Now, I'm new to this, so may not have this 100% correct, but that's
what's working for me.

You can get documentation and a lot of help here:

Hope it works out.

I am in palm bay florida, I got the mach 3 demo and it runs the x y back

and forth with the arrow keys on the keyboard . not sure how to run the
z or
how to set the parameters or how to get it to scale properly, the screen
shows
movement of 20.something and the x travels about 7.0 inches , do you
know
where there is a manual available so im not such a pain in the butt.
