What are my next steps after being able to move axis via the console?

[men8ifr]

OK now I can move each axis of my milling machine via the console. (move or jog)

My goal is to be able to create CAM Paths in Fusion 360 and run on the machine via kflop.

What is my next step?

For now I am not interested tuning the axis performance - they seem to move well and I have 3rd party closed loop stepper drivers so tuning would be done within them anyway. (not within KFlop)

I have not started looking at KmotionCNC yet where is best to start?

I cannot find where to set steps per mm (I assume it is steps per mm? I'm in the UK so mm should be default unit in Fusion I would guess)

Any user documented stories or quick start guides are also welcome.

Create a C Program to initialize KFLOP, enable the axes, and define the axes in your coordinate system. See wiki here.

KMotion CNC Tool Setup | Trajectory Planer | Axis Parameters. Internal units are all entered in Inches. To convert from mm to Inches divide by 25.4. Operator screens support mm and Inches.

You might see our KStep Tutorial and Video. Although you have different Drivers the overall software process is the same.
