Re: New Build LMS 3990 Hi Torque Mini Mill

Will I need to do that every time I power cycle the board and will that work to get through a couple of jobs a day to get jump started?

Re: New Build LMS 3990 Hi Torque Mini Mill

I'm trying to follow the instructions in the video "Fine DRO Adjustment & Measuring Overall Turns Ratio" and I cannot get my DRO to display. Am I missing a setting somewhere?
