  hi,
when i try to scale my design in mach using the scale dros, sometimes it works, most of the time, it doesn't.i always make sure to hit the regen button everytime i change the values in the dros.
does anyone have an idea to solve this?? or if ther's a way to scale my drawing in the gcode, it'll be great.
thank u.

General Mach Discussion / Re: i have a problem with servo Y axis motors

« on: May 08, 2009, 06:41:18 AM »

i solved the problem,:)
well it has been solved by itself.till now i don't know what was the cause.nothing has been changed in mach,and nothing was wrong with the motors.

the Y right one motor was turning just after turning on the machine without joging with it in mach, but it can't move because the A motor on the other side of the table stoped it, and that explanes the sound and the heat.the Y was trying to move.
some signal was making this fault.i don't know what. now it just dissappeared by itself.maybe from the controller box.

thanks again.
