General Mach Discussion / Homing switches
« on: August 24, 2010, 06:04:37 PM »
Hi All, I just tried a new xml profile for my machine which seems to be setup much better than my previous one, however when I click home it tells me the selected homing switch is in use. what is this and how do I change it? the machine was homing just fine with the standard mach mill xml file. thanks!

General Mach Discussion / z axis retracting

hello all,
I'm new to CNC, and am having some fun with a new Syil X4 mill. I finally got clamps today, and tried out one of the bolt array wizards, with 6 holes, .5" depth and .25" rapid clearance. On the screen it did what it was supposed to, down .5", up .75", move to next hole, but the mill did not return up after drilling. it ended up moving 3" downward (it was a test, so i had lots of clearance!). I'm wondering if this is a problem with my mill, or if there is something I did not configure in mach. Jog and homing work fine, which makes me wonder if it is not properly configured. Thanks!
Edwin
