Hello there!

Lately I've been trying to configure a small cnc milling machine with Linuxcnc for a school project. I managed to build a configuration controlling the motors. I'm using the Mesa 7I96 board and a ball screw axis with a threat pitch of 5mm per rotation . At the Moment the motor is rotating very slowly and I'm having trouble configuring both my Driver and Linuxcnc to match the "real" speed of the axis and the displayed speed in Linuxcnc. Your help would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!

Here are some Important files:

Your step scale is _way_ too low

For example if you have a reasonable microstep ratio like 16 (3200 steps/turn)
the scale would be:

16*200/5 = 640

16 = microstep ratio = microsteps/full step
200 = full steps/turn
5 = mm/turn pitch
