Building or Buying a Wood routing table.. Beginnners guide.. / Re: machinebed versus Mach3

So.  Does X axis move the tool or move the work? Moving tool means left is Zero, --, and Home. Right is + and ++.  Moving work means right is Zero, --, and Home.  Left is + and ++.
Does Y axis move the tool or move the work? Moving tool means to the front is Zero, --, and Home.  Moving work means Front is Home, +, and ++.  To the back is - and --.
Z axis is usually moving tool, so Up means Home, + and ++, and Down means - and --.

In general, ++ means + end Limit switch, -- means - end Limit switch.
- and + are for coordinate system and DRO increment, which makes the tool-path display orientation correct.  X increment to the right, Y increment to the rear, and Z increment upward.

all correct

does not matter wether the tool or the material is moving

allways
        Y+
         |
X-    ---   X+
         |
        Y-

you have allways to Looks where your tool goes on the surface of material (bird view).

normal home procedure is:

1.go towards Limit Switch until Limit Switch is hit
2.then ramp down with Motortuning->ACC
3.then go with lower Speed in reverse direction until Limit Switch is free

so if the rampdown pt.2. is to "soft" (low) and the Motor is not able to stop within the range the Limit Switch is
enabled (goes over the Limit Switch), then is in pt.3 the Limit Switch allready free again and it will finish
without reversing.

excuse my bad english

ok had a look to the leadshine Manual.

you have to make a Bridge from the +12V out terminal to the OPTO2 teminal

and then you can use GND and Input3/4.
