General Mach Discussion / Logitech Wingman

« on: March 20, 2009, 03:48:47 PM »

Has anyone sucessfully used a Logitech Wingman game pad as a remote control with Mach 3?  I am wanting to remotely jog all axes, move to 0,0, and start the cutting program.

General Mach Discussion / Limit/Homin switches

« on: May 16, 2008, 10:03:03 AM »

First time poster and newbie to Mach 3. 

I have a homing/limit switch on 3 different axis, wired in series, all hooked to the same port and pin.  After each switch is tripped in the Reference All Home routine I want the machine to move to some offsets that will become my regular working 0,0.  I understand this is possible to do via the homing/limit function.  I have placed the offset dimesnions in the G28 boxes in the lower left of the Homing/Limit screen.  The Auto Zero function is turned on for all 3 axis. but when the Ref. All Home button is pushed the machine goes to the different home postions for each axis, but does not move to the designated offsets.  What am I doing wrong?
