I hope this is the appropriate forum to post this. I'm a noobe.
Machine: Fireball V90.
X & Y Axis: 5 TPI
Z Axis:12 TPI
Driver: Gecko G540
Stepper: KL23H286-20-8B (200 Steps per Rev)
Ini File created with StepConf is attached. Hope this is the file you need to answer my question.
All axix's move without any stalling, but they only move 10% of what they should if I'm understanding the g-code.
For example. I issue a "G0 X10 Y10 Z-3" results in X moving 1 Inch, Y moving 1 Inch, and Z moving 0.3 inches. With my limited understanding, I would have assumed a move of 10, 10, and -3 inches.
What am I missing, and what did I screw up?
If you need a different file, let me know and I'll upload.
Thanks in advance.
John

G540s like most Gecko drives are 10 uStep/full step drives so you have 2000 steps per turn, not 200

That got it.
Changed the INI to 10 microsteps and adjusted the speeds and all is working as expected now.
Now for Home and Limit switches.
Thanks for the prompt response.
