backlash program will not run
« on: January 22, 2007, 11:29:46 AM »
im useing the newest version of mach  .  it seems on every version of mach3 when i enable backlash the program stops about 5 lines down(units/measure)
i dont recall having this problem with mach2 but then i only used it for about 2 months  as soon as i uncheck the the backlash enabled button  WALA  Bertha comes back to life. I have my backlash setting set at .004   for  y,x,a this is a plasma table and i have cv unchecked and exact stop checked  i must be missing to check a box or something all help would be gretaly appreciated

Hi, John

I downloaded your XML the problem is you need to change your slaved axis to C axis change the pin & port numbers and in slave Axis.

Forgot Motor tuning & Inputs C home sw also.

I ran into this problem with my waterjet cutter if I remember right.

Your probably getting good at changing things around now.

This should Doo-IT.

Hope it Helps, Chip

Hi, John

I worked on this for some time, probably something in the your XML, the best is to copy down all your settings.

At screen Profile Create New Profile, check Default Profile Values, New Name enter your values in it.

With a different XML with backlash I could not get it to stop working.

Give it a try, Chip
