General Mach Discussion / Climbing Z axis

« on: July 16, 2012, 04:50:28 PM »

 I'm having an issue with my Z axis slowly climbing out of my material as my relief file runs...it looks like it starts to climb around 50% of the file has run.
Question two I tried to run the file in reverse run to see if it happens in reverse but I can't seem to start the file in reverse. do I have to run the file all the way before I can reverse run? I attached the work after the scales of justice file ran
Thanks

General Mach Discussion / Need Help with "Rquested Home Axis Home Swithch"

« on: January 31, 2011, 10:02:52 PM »

Hello all, "Requested home axis home switch is active.. please fix, Then Home.." Everything was homing, soft limits were set and I was routing jobs. And Loving it. All I did different was hooked up a shop-vac to catch dust and Homing stopped  and got the Requested Home Axis message. 

 I have XYZ run in one series to port 1 pin 10.

 Tested all switches & wire for continuity OK

 De-bounced to 2000

 Played with Config. & Reset Homing (Nothing)

 Motors are all lit in Diagnostics

 What can I try Next?
