Don't set them to 0. It doesn't work reliably.
Pncconf sets them to 25% more.
Does your drives require an enable ? I would check that signal with
halmeter or a real meter.
While pncconf uses the same numbers as it tunes ( as long as you clicked accept)
It doesn't use the same HAL code in the test as in linuxcnc so problems can
creep in and bugs are always possible.
