Mach4 General Discussion / Z axis changes direction incorrectly on rebuild lathe. Mach4 windows 10
« on: April 08, 2019, 09:49:17 AM »
Hey!
My final exam in school is to make a cnc-lathe move in the correct direction. When I press the z axis and release the button instantly, then press it again, the axis will move in the opposite direction which obviously isn't correct. But when I move the axis on a low feed rate the axis moves correctly. I have a customized profile but I'm not sure if some of the settings are correct or not.
Here is a list of the components im using.
IO card, also the plugin for mach4 on the same link.

Manual for the IO card

2 drive modules that sends and recieves signals from the IO card and sends them to the morors.

power supply

Also using a 5V power supply for the ETH IO card.
Optoisolated IO card that connects to the ETH IO card.

Appreciate any help or feedback you can give, also please answer any questions about the setup if you think I forgot to mention something. Thank you!
