Hey All,
Only get to use my mill on occasion and recently started having issues with Z drifting up slightly on a G00 Xnn move. Have Mach3, CSMIO IP/A with Mitsu drives in analog mode. Recently updated the IP/A s/w. Heres the sequence:
- home all axis to sit -5mm off home switches
- give M6 T1, Z moves to home position (-5mm off home switch)
- moves X,Y to T1 position
- pickup T01 from table top ATC, Z moves up to home (-5mm off home switch) from M6 start macro
- give G00 X50
- X starts to move and Z drifts slowly up 5mm and triggers E-Stop going positive
This is repeatable unless I move to another X,Y position after the tool pickup complete and before Z move
Does this sound like a CSMIO issue with the Z drifting?
It seems the updated CSMIO IP/A firmware/driver does not have as many tweaking parameters as previous version.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
