Third party software and hardware support forums. / [Help] Usb board don't trigger e-stop or home/end switches

« on: December 09, 2021, 09:58:15 AM »

Hi everyone 

Im still trying to finish my build but after some good progress (motor working good, all ports and pins configured) i get stuck trying that this Breakout board recognise when i press the end stops, home or emergency stops... 
Everyting is wired like they said, i move the motor and when i press the endstops the motor continue like nothings happen 

This is the board:


It came with a cd with some plugin that is that i already put, and a manual that sais the numbers of ports and pins

I don't have anything more than that. So i suspect that im not geting something.

This is the wiring diagram



Any idea from where to start checking?

Machscreen Screen Designer / [Help] One axis screen

« on: January 14, 2021, 06:57:37 AM »

Hi everyone, i'm trying to build something like this -->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHXoMG2s5yE, but not so fancy xD

So, besides the doubts that i have with the hardware part of the project, i have a couple of problems with the software part of the project.

Basically I'm making my own screen since I didn't find anything that looks like what I need.

My first problem is that I don't know anything about programming, so for sure there are a lot of things that are basic but i am not aware, so sorry for that.
I will share a picture of what i have done, and some of my doubts



First of all i want to thanks to TPS for this fantastic keyboard https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=36213.msg247828#msg247828

Ok, better to start.
*The load and edit buttons are working perfectly

*The stop and home. I want to think that too [function stop (3); function Zero all (7)] i hope that I will be able to try it soon.

*The Go! button, i use the function set this line next to execute (156) but i don't see it in the target length [x dro (800)]

*I can't figure out how to choose between picking a length from the list or making a manual input. I saw the video and its look like he uses a led with some script, but as i said im realy lost there.

*On the Actual length [a machine cord dro (86)] its shows 0.00
But in the target length [x dro (800)] its shows -2.55 all the time and from the beginning, when i press in input target and the keyboard opens it shows too the -2.55, if i change the number and press ok, it doesn't change in the target length


I will realy apreciate a lot any kinde of help 
i will attach the .set file if someone want to look at it
