General Mach Discussion / Re: Z axis is lifting higher and higher after each cut

« on: March 05, 2021, 10:25:08 AM »

G00 Z10.0000
X11.6124 Y15.7764
G31 Z-150 F300.0
G92 Z-3.4000 (3.4 mm off-set until sensor triggered)
G00 Z3.0000
M30

put just this code in a G-code file and run it multiple times, then check z-axis dro and physical z-Position.

Looks like this solution would work.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Will mach 3 control a K40 laser?

there is a Software called K40 Whisperer.
witch might be suitable, just a thought.

to use an external micrcontroller is also a plan, but 57CNC board can provide a 0-5V Signal and has a lot Outputs witch
can be used to "emulate" the pushbuttons.

this document:

https://www.buildyourcnc.com/Documents/PN.SM86HT80-5504B-U(inhouse%20PN.85BYGH450A-47-80)%20(1).pdf

says Motor Connections should be:
A+ red
A- green
B+ yellow
B- blue

different to your wiring.

sorry in interpreted the 20,000 as 20000 and not as 20, because 20000 would be extremly to much.
i have chosen 400 because your Motor is a 1.8Deg Motor so we have 200Steps/rev.
stepper controler is set 1/2 step so 200*2=400.

there are a few possibilities for the failue:

-wiring
-electric noise on your wiring
-defective BOB

nice work .

if you can emulate the Switches by using optocoupler Outputs, the rest can be done in M3,M4 and M5 macro
easily. if you are usin Mach3 i can help if Mach4 sorry not.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach3 Brain Input not saving

that is a bug i brain Editor.
the brain will run with correct Setting, it only uses Default Settings if you what to reedit the Signal.

accordind to your Picture lets try to get the y-axis running.

Config -> Port's/Pin's -> Motor Outputs -> y-axis
step pin->5
dir pin ->4
both active low enabled

CW8060
SW1->0
SW2->1
SW3->1
SW4->1
SW5 to SW8 all 0

assuming you want to run your machine in imperial Units and the Motor should make 1 rev/inch
Config > Motor Tuning -> Y-axis
step's per -> 400
velocity -> 80
acceleration -> 40
don't Forget to press the SAVE AXIS SETTINGS button

in this configuration you should be able to run the Motor in jog mode.
