Mach4 General Discussion / Mach4 incremental jogging problem
« on: January 14, 2024, 09:32:02 PM »
Posted this in pokeys section also but maybe better suited here, recently installed Mach4(was using Mach3 before) and I'm having a jogging issue using incremental. I'm using a pokeys57cnc board, all latest software versions of mach4/pokeys firmware and plugin. The motors are very jerky and noisy and are missing steps, this is even jogging fairly slow but faster I go worse it gets. Continuous jogging works perfectly fine and running G code files also fine, this is the only issue I have come across. Also all jogging works fine if I switch back to mach3.
I recall a post saying to use an increment that is an even amount of steps, which is kind of hard to do but I tried various values between .001 and .010 without any change.
Here is quick video of issue, I'm open to any suggestions, also leaning towards it being a pokeys issue but its hard to tell.
