Mach4 General Discussion / Command to open a specific Wizzard ?
« on: July 01, 2022, 07:59:17 AM »
Hello everyone,
I am making my custom screen and i need a button to open a specific wizard. I found the command to load a specific GCode but not a wizard.
I know i can set it to open the last wizard but it dosen't suit my usage.

To explain my setup, i made a custom wizard to generate a GCode file for my machine. I then open it and run it.

Thanks for your help !

PoKeys / [Mach4 & Pokeys57CNC] Error when starting homming or GCode
« on: May 05, 2022, 09:10:40 AM »
Hey !
I am a beginner and this is my first CNC machine but i read a lot of topics on this forum and in the manuals.

I am starting to give up because i don't understand why machine stay idle :

What is my setup ?
-a Pokeys57CNC connected to leadshine stepper motors
-1 X axe with 2 limits switches and 1 home switch --> powered by the motor 2
-1 A axe without limit switches, it's a rotating head --> powered by the motor 0
(the Z axe isn't mounted yet )

What is working currently ?
-E-Stop, and limit switches wired and Mach4 detect when they are tripped
-Motor 0 and 2 are connected and i can move them using mach4 jogging interface
-I can execute basic lines of GCode in the MDI like
Code: [Select]
G0 X10 A20 F50 and the motors move accordingly

What is not working yet ?
-The Reference All Axes button dosen't do anything, a process start but nothing moves and i then have to press stop to kill it. I linked a screen capture and i paste the logs here (no message is prompted in the status bar).
Code: [Select]

-When i try  to use the trace feature, the Gcode generated is always written with X and coordinates but i only move the X axe. Lateer i will add a Z translation but will never have a Y and i really need to use the trace wizzard. --> When the Gcode is read by Mach4 it fails because the Axe 1 is disabled.


-I also have the kbd48CNC Pokey keyboard and it isn't reconized in the Pokey Configuration program. It's an unrelated problem and i asked on Pokeys support but if anyone here add the same problem it could help me
 

Thanks a lot for your help !
