Hello,
I am new to the world of cnc and I am learning as I go.I have a Chinese made machine that I am helping someone change over from a paralell BOB to an XHC Mach3 USB card.I managed to get it all wired up and working,but I still have some things to figure out/learn.
I can do the refhome function and x,y and z all go to the home position and stop.They do not reverse and come back off the switch.If I check the boxes to use them as limit switches also,the machine goes into limit estop right after homing.I think they are proximity or optical switches.A metal tab approaches them and triggers.The also have an led indicator on them,to show when they are activated.
Is there another setting or adjustment I should be looking at?
Thanks
Alan
