    I'm assuming it's controlled with WinCNC? If so , is there a WinCNC post?

    Sorry, I didn't understand what my question was : )

    Actually my machine uses NCStudio. Guess this is a better question for them to answer?

    I just heard from them after this post. They said to pick the G Code mm *.tap file and rename it to a .nc file.

    However, now I really scrued up. The software that my system uses is NCStudio. Something on it was messed up so I reinstalled it. When I went to run the machine the spindal went out of the Z zone. Yeap... all the setting have been changed. When I called CAMaster, they have no clue what the settings are. So now I am done yet again (I think this is like the third time I can't do something because of the machine) First, the settings that were given to me were wrong. Then I broke the only bit I was given for the machine and when I got others I found out that it was metric. So I had to order (actually a friend got me one) another collet. And now the setting in the software again.

    If you have an SR 23 and use NCStudio please let me know.... : )

    It is actually controlled with the NCStudio. I did what Josh said and it worked out fine. The problem I was having actually came from the home position for Z. Some reason it keeps switching on me. I have it set at the lowest.. something like .237 but it was now at 2.0... How the heck it got there I have no clue.
