General Mach Discussion / Re: auto Z setter adjusting

Attached is the Z Zero code that I am using. It automatically detects if you are running Imperial or Metric. It does a double touch, to assure exact touch point. It is always accurate within .001 and very repeatable.
Code was originally written by BigTEX with modifications that I added a couple of months or so back.
Also make sure you are using the "locked down" version of Mach3 as well.
One last thing to check. Under Config/General Configuration I have to make the Debounce Interval and Index both at 5000 or a bit higher to make sure there is no noise being detected which will upset the Z Zero point as well.
Hopefully one of these things will help you overcome your accuracy problem with your Z Touch routine.
