Re: DMM/Acorn/Taig Build Thread

Sure thing. I'm just having a little trouble as I have just built a new PC but struggling to move all the settings and parameters over using the report function. As soon as I resolve will post some screen shots. I'm inquiring about an update to your reply asking for details on the DMMDRV screenshot...

You can assign an axis to be a C axis. But how y...
