Hello Jim,
Thank you for your continued help with my problem. I have just returned from a weekend away from my home and I'm back on the case trying to solve this mystery of mine.
Firstly let me tell you that I live in Melbourne Australia and not the USA as you may have thought.
Jim, Its interesting the manual that was given to me when I purchase my machine gave different set of
confiruration figures for the motor tuning to the ones that you have made me aware of. Thanks for sending me this version and I have now tried the configuration in the manuel that you refered me to.
This was the result of the changes that I made after looking at the Manual that you asked me to look at.
Using the mouse and the pop out of mach3 3 to jog the cnc machine.
Clicking on the [X+] button - I get a grinding sound out of the (Z Axis) motor. Clicking on the [X-] button I get static movement on the (Y Axis). A Jerking type of movement,and very slow.
Clicking on the [Y+] button I'm able to hear a faint click in the motor of the (Z Axis). If I click [Y-] button I get a grinding sound in the (Z Axis) again as if its trying to jog, but no movement occurs.
Jim, I have just retried again, and its do different thing again. I now only have movement on the Y axis when Click on the [x+] button I jog to nearly the end of the table and then when I released the button, wan click [X-] button,
the machine jogged in the opposite direction back towards home.
It seems to have a mind of its own, doing different things at different times without me changing any of the configurations details that I have put into place.
Would this be a controller box problem? would it be defective perhaps? or could they have assembled the thing incorrectly? could this be possible?
