You will find a number of pdf documents in the Documents directory on the CD. 
These are a little out of date unfortunately, but they should cover most of 
the basics.

Starting with a working ini file is always a good plan - The scale settings 
would be the first parameters to change, as these probably won't match your 
machine(s).. After that, the min & max limits, velocities, and accelerations 
can be adjusted. Much of the tuning is trial and error I'm afraid.
