General Mach Discussion / Ref All Issues

« on: November 12, 2010, 03:17:38 PM »

All,
When I select ref all home, one of the following happens:
1 - works correctly
2 - z & y work correctly, x hits the switch but doesn't reverse requiring a reset
3 - z & y work correctly, x hits the switch a bends the arm before stopping

Any ideas?

I have micro switches for limit/home functions. I have adjusted the debounce variable many times but the problem persists.
Before I change the switch, what adjustment should I make? The switch arm can only be bent so money times.

TIA,

Adrian

General Mach Discussion / Reversing Axis

« on: September 23, 2010, 10:00:13 PM »

All,

My frustration is at an all time high.

The latest problem centers around my z-axis reversing direction after each push of the jogging key. All was well
a week ago and I was making the final connections of my limit switches and things went south. I had run the break-in program 3-4 times
prior to this setback. I rechecked my connections and all appears to be fine. Has anyone experienced this and if so, what or where can I look to solve this issue.
