have older prs alpha 2007 i bought used and just about have it working.
had to order new y axis prox/limit switch and was able to zero x and y axis today.
my problem now is tool moves 1/2 of what is shown on control display.
display shows 10 inches actual move is 5 inches in both axis.
also it keeps telling me its outside of table limits .
i have latest shopbot 3 software hope its just a couple of settings.
any help greatly appreciated .
i want to make something so bad ....:D

Rob, could you maybe have the wrong settings loaded for your machine? Try a reset to the defaults for your machine with 'UR' and chose the file for your machine according to the size. Something like... ShopBot_PRS96x48alpha.sbd.

Rob,
Did it feel something like this, the first time you saw it move?
