General Mach Discussion / Problem Solved
« on: September 10, 2014, 12:09:43 PM »
The problem was more my lack of understanding of how Mach3 worked with my machine. If I pressed the ref all button the Z axis would stop when the proximity sensor was triggered. I could jog the axis manually and continue beyond this point so I thought there was a problem with my configuration of Mach3 or the wiring of the machine. Because the machine has only one proximity sensor at one end of each of the x and y axis, soft limits must be used. The original configuration of Mach that came with the machine had only X,Y, and Z home activated in Mach3 and was configured so soft limits was persistent. Once I figured this out everything is functioning appropriately.
Thanks for your input HOOD I appreciate it.
