General Mach Discussion / Y Axis only moves one direction
« on: March 02, 2012, 11:47:16 AM »
Hi All,
I have run into a problem I can't seem to figure out. My Y-Axis only moves in one direction. I have built a three axis router. I am using Nema 23 motors , and Leadshine amps. I have verified all of my wiring and everything is tight and working correctly. I build CNC Lasers for a living, this is a pet project for me. This is the first time I have used MACH 3.
This is what I have done so far:
I swapped the y and x axis wiring and the problem moves with the Swap. (Therefore the issues is not with the amps and motors or their wiring)
I swapped the Pin numbers in Motor Config. Problem moves as well.
I swapped the controller card. (Same issue)
I swapped the 25 pin cable (Same issue)
It appears that I do not have a direction controll on my Y-Axis or My A-Axis. My X and Z axis are working correctly.
It is almost like I have the MACH 3 configured wrong. I am not sure what is going on. I have upgraded to the latest version of MACH 3 as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
