Hi
If you have created a configuration, it should be displayed at the top of the selections.
However from you previous posting, I believe you are after a simulator to experiment with g code
Choose the sim heading and from that either axis or axis_mm and that will give you a conventional 3 axis mill.
Ref your previous on transferring g code from windoze, download gedit for windows tocreate your code, it is free.
Select unix mode so that its output is compatible and just copy across on a USB stick if not networked
regards

Well I'de want to set up my 3 axis hobbycnc controller at the same time if possible.
Axis-mm in metric right? So I will just choose axis because my units are in inches.
But yes, for this time I want to simulate my G-Code.
What if I want to setup my controller do I choose the same settings and then modify them or do I choose something else?

Hi
What you want is stepconf to make an initial config
See the Getting Started Manual
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.5/html/config/stepconf.html
