General Mach Discussion / Soft limits switch
« on: April 23, 2013, 07:48:30 AM »
Hello  there,
I have recently  got  myself a  CNC  machine  and  run it  under  Mach3
There  are  no  Home  switches  on  the  machine,  but i have  set  up  the  limits on  the  workbench  in Config/Homing/ Limits
It  works  fine  when I  activate  the  Soft Limit  Switch in Mach3,  but i  do  not  seem  to be  able to  make  it  work  when  am  running a  job  in  the  machine,
Then  the Soft  Limits  do  not  work  at  all,
Am i  missing  something  here ?
Any  help  would  be  much  appreciated

Hello Tweekie,
Thanks  you  so  much  for  that  information
Now  everything  works  the  way  i  wanted it  too,  I  think  it  would  have  taken  me a  long time if  ever to  work  this  out  by myself.
Many  thanks  for  that

General Mach Discussion / How to set Software Limits with No switches
« on: March 04, 2013, 03:55:08 AM »
Hello  there,

I  am  new  at  this  and  apart  from  doing  some  setting up on my  new  CNC  machine,  i  have  not  been  able  to  figure  out  this  Soft Limit
I  do  not  have  any  Home Switches   of  any  sort  on  the  machine,  and  was thinking of  giving  that a  miss  for  the  time  being
My  intention  is  to  work on  fairly  samall  wood  items  in  the  middle of  the  Work  area,
Can  i  set  up  the  coordinants  and  lock  them  somehow,  so  i  will  not  be  able to  run  outside  those  perimeters
Any  help  would  be  much  appreciated
Thanks
