This took awhile for me to figure out. Since Mach3 is setup for PWM for spindle, if you have a Max Speed set as something very high and call for a lower speed, Mach3 will pulse the motor. This is NOT appropriate for routers and other DC motors which have their own feedback. Set your MAX SPEED to 1000 and in your Gcode call for spindle speed as always 1000 (number doesn't matter as long as they match). Adjust the router or spindle using its own speed control.
* Homing and Soft Limits
* Mach3 Screen Set
