Title: mach3 question
Post by: rbrintle on April 12, 2015, 09:52:24 PM

hi , im retrofitting a machine with mach 3, pmdx 126 breakout board and panasonic servo drives and motors, i have movement on axis now , but always in same direction , mach3 displays show correct movement but axis goes in same direction, i can change motor output pin numbers and direction changes but still goes in only 1 direction same if i change parameter on drive , direction of movement changes but goes same direction whether jogged in + or - direction.

thanks
robert brintle

Sounds like your Direction pin is either configured wrongly in Mach or there is an issue with the wiring to the drive from the breakout.
