Okay I think I have it, It works better after doing both the velocity 
and the accel.

Question, when I was running EMC 1, I would have problem with following 
errors if I went above 100% on over speed of the axises while running a 
program, what causes this and how can I fix it?  Can I test this without 
running code? if so how?
