I was wondering if anyone out there could help me.
My Mach3 machine runs well however when I set up the probe to pin 3 port 2 of my ESS C25 Smoothstepper board, when grounding the (wire shielded)to the machine frame the digitizer led flashes on and off in the diagnostics screen. I would assume that this tells me that I have continuity between my probe input and ground. Should this led not stay on as long as the probe is grounded?
I have also installed the Big-Tek Big Blue Probing screen. In the blue screen when I probe the Z axis, the z axis move but does not stop when contact is made with the probe, although the screen probe led flashes on and off.
I have also tried a G31 X 5.0 move in the MDI screen and the axis moves and stops when I ground the probe wire, but the motor continues to vibrates like it’s not completely shut down. Any suggestion?
