    If I remember you can change the jog value in the set-up menu.

    Don

    From the main screen press ALT-S to get to the setup screen... then down arrow three times to "unit, label, jog and F/R settings"... press enter to open this screen.

    Now arrow down to Slow jog settings and press enter to edit the required axis.
    esc back to main setup menu and down arrow to save settings... enter to accept and esc once more back to the main screen.
    HTH

    Thanks, I have things running pretty well now. I really like cncpro. The only thing I wish it had was a way to get a file in a diffrent directory other than in cncpro\gcode or maybe a:\. I have to get out of cncpro to load a new file.
    Thanks the help

    You ask and it shall be delivered...

    Alt-F for the file menu, arrow down to "Create or Edit G Code File"

    Now in the editor... Alt F for the File pull down menu, down arrow to open... you now have a DOS file/directory screen

    Use the tab key to switch between windows and now you can load files from anyware on your system.

    Alt-f to save the file to cncpro\gcode from the editor.

    NOTE: to be able to load the gcode file into CNCPro it must have been saved with a .txt extension and direct disk access must be enabled in the cncpro.exe properties
