General Mach Discussion / Re: THC and Z axis floating head once agine

Sound Logic solve my problem.

"Make sure the the  pin you use for Z home is not used for anything else.
In other words if Z home is on port 1 pin 13 make sure port 1 pin 13 in not used anywhere else in the config."

I have to check reversed on Z axis in home/limit setup.
THX again Jim

General Mach Discussion / THC and Z axis floating head once agine

« on: November 30, 2008, 04:16:44 AM »

Hi
I bough THC300 and all works perfect without one thing
When I have code G28.1 Z2 (I try with Z-5, Z10, Z3 and another)  Torch start going down touch material floating head press switch ZHome and nothing happend torch still go down.
I have NormalOpen switch when torch go down in diagnostic screen ZHome is off next switch is presset and Zhome led start lights but torch still go down.
For me it looks like G28.1 don't checks Zhome input signal
I read more topics about this problem on forum but I can't fix the problem.
Regards
Marcin

Hi my name is Marcin I'm from Poland. I build my own plasma cutting table and now I start learn mach3 controll software. On this forum I see that people can do amazing things with Mach3 so i want introduce and start learn . My machine works good with THC I need to add auto tool zero position on function G28 (it is easy) but I have one problem. When I start Mach3 every time I have to change scale on X and Y axis to 1.0066 and sometime I forgot do this. If sameone know what I can do to make change scale on startup mach in best option will be great. Now I can set scale in VB macropump but  I suppose that it isn't good way (is another better options)
I try in this week put photo or film how my machine work
best regards
Marcin
