Subject: [MachCNC] mach 4 and ess

I spent hours trying to get mach4 to work with ess. Boy is the configuration a confusing mess.

two things i just can't get to work but i am sure there will be others once i test my lube control and other things.

i think i can live without my customizations at least for a while but i just wanted to see if mach4 is really any better and worth
the effort.

I CAN NOT GET MOTOR TUNING TO WORK. i have all pins assigned etc and i can run a test gcode but the steps are totally wrong and need
to be changed. in the appropriate place (something like config control motors) i have the familiar motor tuning screen similar to
mach3. however the steps speed and accel are greyed out and i can not enter anything. by default all motor checkboxes were checked
and i unchecked and checked until i was exhausted. nothing i could do would let me enter the values.

also i can not find anywhere where hotkeys are assigned. i found a tutorial you tube by a woman who sounds very authoritative so i
think i might have found the answer but i have viasat internet and videos are blurry pixels at anything other than high res which
means i have to wait weeks for vids to load. this is why i seriously shy away from youtube.
we are in the list for starlink and hope to get it soon so we will be in the 20th or is that 21st century like everyone else.

with all the fabulous improvements WTF can't there be a downloadable pdf worth shit? i have a great manual for mach3 and did not
have many problems installing or using it other than a few here and there and the bugs which have prompted me to try mach4.

so maybe hotkeys and other kule keyboard stuff will be explained buy the very confident sounding woman if i live long enough to
download the high res video

however trying to find out why motor tuning is greyed out could take me into the next century trying to find the answer.

The motor tuning page requires that you not only check the enabled motors in the right column, but you also have to click on the
Motor0, or whatever, so that it highlights blue, and then the parameter blocks will be editable and the graph will function for that
motor.
