Hi Juan

You are correct.  Line 27 in the .run file should point to the ini file that 
you want to use.  If you named all of them webstercnc then line 27 of 
webstercnc.run should read 

INIFILE=webstercnc.ini.

What happens here is that a variable named INIFILE is set to a value that is 
passed on to several of the EMC modules when they start up.  So you are doing 
okay.  Now continue by editing webstercnc.ini to point to the rest of the 
webstercnc files and set it up to run steppermod and the minimill task and io.

When you start the emc using webstercnc.run you may get red position letters. 
If you do change the value 1 in

MIN_LIMIT_SWITCH_POLARITY =     1
MAX_LIMIT_SWITCH_POLARITY =     1

to read 0 and then save the file and restart.

Hope this helps.

Ray
