So in preparing the z height for the my tools 0 starting point with the mach3 internal mpg I'm having some strange issues I cant figure out.
Steps to reproduce
1. I jog down to set the Z height using the internal mach3 mpg while at the same time measuring with a dial gauge(used 2 different ones at the same time)
2. Both dials read 0 and then I set z to 0(OK should now be zero)
3. Pressing goto 0 should now return the dial gauges to 0 but instead the dials move .03mm past 0.
4. Pressing goto 0 again returns the dials to 0.03mm
I can repeat step 4 over and over again and the dials always return to the same .03 position. I have inputeed my backlash a few months ago(.07mm) and because the dials return to the same .03 past z 0 positron I think the backlash calculated correctly.
I also tried jogging the tool down past the dials 0 then jogging it back up to 0 before i set the soft zero on the z. If I'm jogging up to z then when i hit goto 0 the tool is .01mm below 0.
I cant really understand whats going on here but obviously it isn't that great for setting up my tool positions.
Any insight to what may be going on would be wonderful.
I also have the same error when using my xbox controller as my mpg:( And if it helps I still have it plugged in while using the mach3 internal mpg
