General Mach Discussion / Problems with Homing and more
« on: August 19, 2007, 10:04:29 PM »
My set up is servos running off of G320's.  When I home it out, it always goes back to the same spot.  When I command a G28 from the program it comes back to within .005 to .010 from the home position.  I am running very slowly cutting air so I don't think it is missing steps due to to much load. 

Questions:

1) Can I home the machine out from the program and reset home position?

2) What does "verify" do.  Can it be commanded from a program.  Will it reset zero position.

3) "G28.1 Z0." does not work like expect.  I would like it to go from where it is at to the z reference switch.  All axis move toward the switches. Do I have the code wrong.

4) How do I start in the middle of the program.  My programs do not have line numbers.  How is it intended to work.  Can I start from a tool number or tool change?

5) Were did the jog indicator go in Mach 3.  I went back to Mach 2 because I couldn't find it.

Any help would be appreciated.
