I have mach 3 setup, apparently wrong. When I go to axis calibration and tell the axis' to move a certain direction, they do. Here's the problem. When I try to run a program they are moving almost an inch too far. I also dont know what role velocity and acceleration play in all this. I have the velocity and acceleration the same on the motors hoping it cuts a true arc or circle when needed. I will openly say I received my mach3 with a small router because they said it had a full version. I later found out it was a pirated version. i have deleted it and using trial version now but i dont know if it has any remaining files interfering. it shouldn't since i downloaded the trial version but i dont know. I really am confused about why it travels correct during calibration and so far off running a program. ANY help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Been working on this conversion for around 7 months. Ready to make chips ............................. Accurate chips I hope. Thanks
