Thanks,

Just before I saw this I tried the isMoving after the G28.1 and it worked.  I'll add it to the other places

General Mach Discussion / Touch Plate

« on: January 29, 2014, 01:05:22 PM »

I am trying to write a macro to zero my Z.  I want the spindle to home itself up at the limit switch, then move to a specified location, then move down to the touch plate.

Here is my macro.  It was working for a while, now it does the steps out of order.  It moves in XY before doing the G28.1 Z0


Code "G28.1 Z0"
Code "G0 X0.44 Y-0.46"
Code "G31 Z-4.0 F9"
While IsMoving()
Sleep(200)
Wend
Call SetDro (2, 0.6324)
Code "G1 Z0.8"
Code "G0 Y1"
Code "G0 Z0"
