Hi Gerry,
I THINK i have it figured out. After trying every possible combinations of every button I could find with no luck I erased the Ref All Home script and typed it again.
it appears to be working now. Being totally unfamiliar with the macro language and formats I'm not sure if ther was rouge space, return, etc. somewhere that was causing a problem.
That leads me to another issue with the proximity sensors. Definately struggling to get any sort of repeatability/ consistency out of them. They are a Chinese NPN NC 3 wire sensor.
I'm chasing to get them to activate at the same time. I get them absolutely perfect, withing .0005", and then the next try they are off by .015". I'm thinking that since I'm trying to square the gantry that the accuracy of them coming off the sensor is more important than when it goes into the sensor. Any thoughts on that?
I've read numerous posts and it's split on whether I need to add a resistor or some other electrical component to make them operate properly.
Do you have any advise on them? Are they supposed to be the most accurate and repeatable of the options that are out there?
Can you also point me in the direction of a good tutorial on the Mach3 macros? Again, I've looked and can only find references to the commands, nothing explaining what they really mean and how to use them. Mach3 macros for dummies (does it exist?)
Appreciate the help
Have a great day,
Joe
