General Mach Discussion / Mach 3 axis moving after exit/estop
« on: April 30, 2013, 02:06:24 PM »
Thanks for locking my old thread with absolutely zero explanation as to why. I really appreciate that!
My machine seems to work fine, but when I press the reset button or exit mach 3 the x axis continues moving while in e-stop mode. Clearing the software e-stop makes the x axis quit moving. Playing with the motor tuning settings seems to change how the axis moves, but it always moves when it shouldn't. It's not moving very smoothly when this happens either, grinding and making lots of heat.
Turning the x axis pins off keep mach from moving the axis, but it still runs away in e-stop mode.
Is this a hardware issue or software?
