General Mach Discussion / Newby converting to Mach4 from Mach3 and scared but doing it
« on: March 20, 2023, 08:29:10 PM »
I have so many questions, but I will start with why in the world would Mach remove the Diagnostics tab in there screens??
The big question I have and has been beaten to death but I still cannot figure it out is why can I not get A) any of the axis to back off of the homing switch when I use the switch as a dual limit and home? B) if I disable the limits and just have the switches as home then all the axis back off except Z and I have to actually give it an offset to retract from the switch? C) why won't Z axis go to its work zero when called to but all others do?
I have been putting this off now for over a year and I just expanded my table to 10' so I thought it would be a good time to make the dreaded change. I am sure I am missing something easy so any help would be appreciated.
