Hi,
Thanks to help received earlier, my Bridgeport mill is almost ready to cut metal. But, there still is another issue that needs resolving. Both X and Y tables don't move as commanded. At first the error was 0.4 inches for a command of 1.0 inch for both X and Y. The config wizard was opened and I found that I had never entered the numbers pertaining to my mill. That was corrected to an Axis scale of 800 steps per inch. Still no joy; now both tables moved only 0.04 inch for a one inch command and now at a snail's pace. Where do I look next and correct what specific error? Thanks for any help received.

Looks like the 800 steps per inch are not correct. Try 800 x 1/0.04 = 20000.
