Axes working now. I found my error in configuration. The axes were moving
in the commanded direction, but I didn't notice that the encoder was
reading the opposite sign of that direction.
Duh!

Thanks, Gene I won't dwell on that then. It must be something else I've
done incorrectly.

Should I be able to jog the axes with the drive not enabled through
LinuxCNC with a 7i33? I have not had any success in being able to control
movement, speed, or distance either in continuous or in step increments. It
moves in the correct direction, but only stops when it exceeds following
error.
Thank you, Andy, Peter.
I will try this and spend more time and effort in PID tuning per John
Thornton's tutorial.

Hi all, I hope everyone is well.
I have mounted encoders on the ball screws of my mill so that I can keep
the working tach's on the motors.
When trying to configure it using PNCconf wizard, it seems to be made to
configure with encoders on the motors. With the encoders scaled to track
accurately,
