just adjusted the ramp down from 6 to 9 and it is now working as it should
the only other change the machine had that i forgot to say was it now has a 200mm chuck instead of the 160mm as i need to use soft jaws

200mm chuck is quite a bit more inertia than a 160mm one. If you have your braking times set for the smaller chuck, the larger one may cause bus overvolt conditions when stopping.
