Re: Speed around corners

Those are some nice cuts. Clean and smooth. Is the Wizard set to 3200 steps/rev for X and Y? I think the last report I saw something like 6400 Can you post a fresh report with the latest settings. Can I see the dip switch settings on the drives? Did setting Parameter 223 to the 100-300 range help?

Re: Speed around corners

Can you post some of the G-code jobs from the example Pictures. Does the same thing happen without smoothing? Try setting parameter 223 to 300 Path to the Parameters list from the home screen is F1 Setup>F3 Config>F3 Parameters This will Lower the Vector rate with smoothing and should help for smoot...

Re: V5.1 Lathe distance to go isn't working

I was not able to replicate the issue with your report.

Usually, the X moves in the G-code I tested with was very short and the distance to go was shown briefly since the X move was very short and quickly executed.

Re: Centroid V5.10 tool number

This is a result of pressing write setting with the Custom ATC macro set to yes. Doing this is making an assumption that the user will set these parameters manually. What most people do is have the slider set to no press write setting to cnc control at least once which sets all ATC parameters proper...

M61 is called Touch off cycle and the Z retracts to the Pierce Height. The torch is fired and X Y motion starts for the Wiggle pierce. Aft...

Re: drivers ok with centroid? and circuit board standoffs

The Wiring looks the same. Schematic S15034 will work. You want continuity from the stand offs all the way thru to the cabinet. All ground and Shields should be Attached at a single point bar or terminal strip Not 100% sure on the stand off length but I think for the Acorn at least a 1/4 inch length...
