PoKeys / Re: Mach4 PoKeys57CNC Driving analogue output.

Thanks a lot for getting back to me,

No luck, unfortunately. It's still stuck at 0v no matter what I change the speed to.

Cheers

PoKeys / PoKeys57CNC/Mach 4 Spindle speed configuration issues

« on: August 17, 2021, 02:38:04 PM »

Hello,

I have spent the last several hours trawling the other similar posts about Pokeys57CNV and mach4 Configuration issues but none of those solutions help unfortunately!

I recently fitted a lathe with the PoKeys57cnc and had everything working well in Mach3, I decided to upgrade to Mach4 for the threading capability.
Unfortunately, I cannot configure the 0-10v output (pin 17) to control the spindle speed. I have read all the literature and searched dozens of posts but I can't get it to output any voltage at all.

As I mentioned, this speed control is working perfectly with Mach3.

Any help would be greatly appriciated,
Cheers,

Aidan

General Mach Discussion / Accurate when jogging, not accurate when cutting?

« on: June 18, 2018, 04:19:36 PM »

Hey Everyone,

I have exhausted my google ability trying to figure out whats wrong with my machine so forgive me if it is an easy fix!

I'm finishing up construction of a simple CNC table for cutting sheet material and everything has gone fairly well, the problem is when I jog the machine, or manually input a movement for say 100mm it is extremely accurate.
But when I output my toolpaths from Cut2D my cut is off exactly 1mm on x, and 1.4mm on y.

I have checked everything ten times, and I've used two different versions of Cut2D on two different computers, and also Aspire 8 and I still get the same inaccuracies.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks a million
