Using rotary as a spinner. Forgive me...again. In Mach I was able to use my 4th as a spindle, so to speak. With Acorn, I can get it to spin as a linear and rotary axis, but it wants to finish the command before it moves the x or y. G00 A4000.00 wants to finish before moving to x.... G01 x1.1 ect ect...

I see on the schematic that the red wires go to ground and the green go to 1,2, and 3. My question is, by what means do you connect them to the ribbon cable input? I'm sure there is a simple answer, but my MO is scatterbrain.

IDIOT ALERT. Once you follow the simple directions and jump the 24v and wire up an E stop... it works.

I'm simply using the preinstalled Gecko(drive only) xml

I believe it's set to off. It's led is green. All of this worked as is at one time before computer crashed.

The MPG is a VistaCNC, not a Centroid

than you... here is the report

I had this this running fine in Mach when pc crashed. Trying Acorn but, regardless of what I try, I cannot get the estop to reset. All my drives on the 4660 are green, but the estop simply won't reset. It's jumped on the 4660. Also, I'm wondering about how to install my USB MPG. Thank you in advance.
