General Mach Discussion / Motor "Sometimes" goes in Wrong Direction while Tuning
« on: March 13, 2009, 09:10:34 AM »
Made some serious headway tuning the motors last night. NOW the direction is possessed and none of the 3 ways in the MACH3 Manual seem to fix it. While tuning, the UP ARROW Key should make the motors turn + and the DOWN ARROW Key should move the Motors -.
This is the case only 50% of the time. It is unreliable at best
A sample would be like below:
UP ARROW - Moves the motor +
DOWN ARROW - Moves the Motor -
UP ARROW - Moves the Motor +
DOWN ARROW - CONTINUES TO MOVE THE MOTOR +
They sometimes move in the direction they should, however after 3-4 movements in the correct direction, the motors WILL ALWAYS move in the WRONG direction when the opposite ARROW is prressed.
Any ideas?
