I found <IsZaxisAvailable>false</IsZaxisAvailable> in config.xml and set it to true, so I have the buttons for it in RetinaEngrave, but nothing happens when I press them. I tried to swap some drivers just to make sure the drivers wasn't faulty. It wasn't.
I also found an error in the wiki for the interface/driver board. The drawing of the connectors shows X-axis to be closest to 24V in, while the silkscreen on the actual board shows Z-axis to be closest to 24V in. SInce I had followed the drawing when connecting up the board, my table started going up and down when I tried going left and right...
I also noticed that a lot of my red laser beam is reflected from the laser head and hits to the right of mirror 2. Does that mean my laser head needs to be rotated left slightly so that the reflected beam hits the mirror?

I have the older 3.x board, but with upgraded FW, so I'm running RE 4.13B.
PM sent with email address.
I also need to check which microstepping I need to use. I tried a quick job, and I think it might have been too small. And, looking at the file in CorelDraw, I need to change the microstepping to 1/8...
