Mach 3 post and setup for 3D

Post by BobF »

I am cutting the free download sample (Flor da lis in dish style). I chose the Mach 3 ATC post. The machine is very "jerky" similar to it once did without the right Mach settings. It does not do this in VCarve Pro, but I use the Mach 3 Arcs post, which I did not see listed for VA3D. Can I add the other post?
Is there something I missed?

Thanks
BobF

Well, I found the answer. Its that darn CV stuff again. This time it is the CV feedrate in the settings screen. I guess since I have not cut much 3D lately, I didn't notice it having turned itself back on. I guess it could have been when I installed the "blue screen" with erniebro's installer for the zero plate and corner finder.
