Mach4 General Discussion / Confusion about home switch location

« on: December 09, 2017, 04:35:09 PM »

Hello. My x axis homes to the left....  meaning the table moves to the left when homing. When i look at the machine extents, the x axis appears to be reversed. It seems like mach 4 wants my x home switch on the other side and then all would be good. Is there was way to remedy this with out moving switches around? I have tried home offset, but it would appear i'm missing something...

Mach4 General Discussion / Reference all home help.

« on: November 27, 2017, 04:12:39 PM »

Hello. Would anyone be able to help me piece together a simple homing script. Clicking reference all home homes all axiis X Y Z. Great. How can i have X then move like 10 inches to center the table? seems pretty simple and is pretty normal on industrial machines.... i found some mention of using something like a Gcode execute in the homing sequence in load screen? nothing seems to work and anything mach4 / lua "noob" documentation is few and far between...   I have successfully got psychical cycle start feed hold stop buttons programmed and working (cant figure out single block tho..) Any help with getting this thing working correctly would be so awesome.!
