Hi,
Have read the manual about the motor tuning and done it correctly (I hope). At the moment I know the step pulse must be wrong because I ask it to move 50mm and it does not. Yes will see the problem in a minute but here is what I am running and the settings:-
Software - Mach 3
PC - Windows 7
CNC Router - CNC 3040
Motor Tuning settings:-
Steps Per - 700
Velocity - 150
Acceleration - 20
Step Pulse - 3
Dir Pulse - 3
Command used:-
under MDI:-
G1 X50 F250
Under Program:-
Goto Zero
Marked Starting position on wood.
First run:-
Moves 35.7mm
Returns past mark 6.5mm
Second Run:-
Moves 37.1
Returns past mark 2.2mm
Third Run:-
Moves 41.9mm
Stops before mark 7.0mm
Each time the router is set back to the same starting position.
Please please please let me know what is wrong and if possible the right settings that are needed assuming it is the software.
