Does your wireless work in regular ubuntu (not the rtai kernel that emc
needs to run)?
If so this worked for me...

In the case of a stepper machine f-error indicates that the step

That looks pretty good, but those acceleration rates seem pretty brutal.
That is about 10x what I am using. You must have quite a bit higher
voltage, and more current to your motors available to your motor drivers
than I do, 28 volts, 2.4 amps to the motors. I will raise the current when

I thought I remembered a name for that from college physics.

One other thing I was having an issue with was the G540 step settings.
I previously had g251s for the steppers (which are the same thing that is
inside the G540). I used the step rate from the pncconf of:
DIRSETUP = 200
DIRHOLD= 200
STEPLEN= 1000
STEPSPACE = 2000
For some reason I
