Dwell issue when using a smoothstepper. This issue is that the smoothstepper always uses seconds requardless of the dwell settings in Mach3. This issue is not going to be fixed as both the Smoothstepper folks and Mach3 folks are pointing the finger at each other. Indeed if the problem is with Mach3 I doubt it will ever be fixed.
To solve the problem you have to convert any dwell settings in any Gcode to use seconds. Use G4 P.5 instead of G4 P500 to pause for 1/2 of a second.
