    You are the second one this week. I'll think I'll see about posting one up somewhere for download, or making it a sticky.
    That's a pretty common setup, and one that certain dealers don't supply any help or config files for....

    In the meantime PM me with your email and I'll send you one too!

    Sorry about that, took off for the holidays and a lot has been going on here!
    PM box is open again! I can email it to you if you like.

    I will simply post the .xml file for the taig/xylotex combo here if there is an easy way to do it - a fairly regular number of people need it as it is a fairly common combo and there are none supplied with the machines.

    A Taig/G540 .xml file would also probably be a good addition as well.

    Yeah I PM'ed you.

    I have mach3 driving the deepgroove controller. ArtSoft has a deepgroove XML file, but I don't know what's up with it. The steps/in are all wrong and the speed's only a slight crawl. I modified it into my own XML file that seems to mostly work though it is prone to stalling, which I understand is a problem for everyone using Xylotex but the details of the settings probably have some effect on that. The thing is though I can't be certain all the details are optimum (pulse width, active low, Sherline half-pulse, etc) since so much of the original file seems incorrect.
