rapid travel

[iccirvr]

I finally got my BP with the Microkinetics drive working w/ the breakout board . Everything works except the rapid positioning (G0) which does not work. I tried everything that I know of but no dice. Any suggestions?
Thanks Vinnie

doesn't work in a program? MDI? Both?

[iccirvr]

It doesn't work in both

Is your code using G0 (zero), or GO (letter "O")?

[iccirvr]

I use the zero not the letter

Double check your mach settings

I just went to my mill and double cked w/ a g00 x5 y3 MDI and it goes to location but at milling speed. I have been fooling aroung w/ my motor tuning and decreased the # of steps to as low as 500 from 2500 and no change.

G0 speed is the speed set in the motor tuning. If you want it faster, increase the velocity in the motor tuning.

Changing steps/unit will change the distance traveled, you shouldn't be changing it if you want your parts the correct size.

Not sure if it would have anything to do with it, but if you open the MPG thingy (TAB key) what does your "Slow Jog" say?
