CNC 3020 Configuration files

Mach3

I wasn't overly fond of the Mach3 trial version i had to work with. Compared to Mach3's 1000 line gCode limit EMC2 is unlimited. I also found that EMC2 was easier to work with, more powerfull, had more features, and seems to physically run my mill better. That said Mach3 is great if you don't want to mess with Linux (which realy isn't as bad as you mgiht think) or don't mind paying their $175 price ( 30% of the cost of the mill)

EMC2 config file

Here is a zipped configuration file that i currently use with my CNC3020 mill. It isn't yet perfect but it should get you up and running much quicker than trying to revese engineer the Mach3 setting the seller provides.
