General Mach Discussion / 4th Axis when Slave in Use
« on: December 09, 2018, 02:08:38 PM »
Hi,
Hopefully this is in the right section. I have a Gecko540 controller running two steppers on the Y-Axis with one being slaved to A. X is X and Z is Z.
I've just made a rotary axis which is currently being run as the X-Axis. Is there a way to make this axis angular and retain the two steppers on the Y? Is it possible to slave the X axis to Y and then use A on the rotary? Or is there another way? Currently I have it as a linear setup and I don't know if I have it setup correctly in terms of steps etc...
Thanks
