General Mach Discussion / soft limit warning
« on: July 26, 2009, 02:38:31 PM »
Hey All,
Well after a couple months of my router being down because of a crashed computer (had to reload all my software and new HD) and broken z-axis I am almost back and running. Unfortunately I did not save a copy of all my Mach3 settings so I am starting all over again
This time around I added another switch in series with all the axis for home and limit. Now I cannot get my system to run because I get a "limit switch triggered " error but on the diagnostic screen, none of the switches our triggered?
I have the soft limits set to X-100, Y-100, and Z-200. I have the unit configured in inches so maybe those have to be smaller values?
I have a couple of screen shots, any ideas what I did not configure correctly? I watched the Mach3 video tutorial and thought I had everthing correct.
