    What controller are you using? Mach, TuboCnc, ???

    Then somebody might be able to give a little more direction.

    OK, somebody who knows (maybe Hoss or others) Mach can lead you through the setup. I think he has a video on how to do it. I don't use Mach so don't want to mislead you! Good luck as this is a very handy tool to have in your box.
