First, welcome Bill, its a great hobby for the later years, been retired close to 12 years myself. Second, it sounds as if you ran the servo configurator rather than the stepgen config generator, so lets start by asking you to describe your machine. Mill, lathe, some other critter? what kind of motors? what kind of motor drivers? general description of the driving computer?
