Title: Current Position does not change while moving axes - 7766
Post by: DFitz on August 27, 2021, 03:22:54 PM

If anyone can help me with this problem, I'd be so grateful....

The Current Position does not update when I move any axis. The Machine Coordinates on the diagnostics screen shows my position, but the Current Position values don't change - (no change with jogging or g-code). I'm homing with limit switches, and that all works fine. Everything else seems to work as normal, but I cannot figure out how to fix this.

I'm running Mach4 Hobby, and a HICON 7766, with steppers (no encoders).

Cheers.
David.

Turns out it was my stupidity that caused the problem. I had Motors 0-2 enabled in the Aux. Positions tab.
