Hi, I recently found a Mach3 script by Allen Massey for an edge finding plate.
I downloaded the script to the hidden Auto zero file and wired up the breakout board as described. I activated the probe in ports and pins and began the testing. On the diagnosis page the digitise LED failed to light when I touched the probe to ground. As far as I understand I take a wire from my port (port 13, the only port free) to the probe and a second wire from the ground pin on the same pin 13 to the edge finder. Touching the two together should cause the LED to light. Any ideas?
Secondly I note that the script I have received is in inches whereas my machine is set to millimetres. I presume that all inch references will have to be converted to metric. I am not familiar with Mach 3 code and I wondered if there is anyone out there who is familiar with the Allen Massey script who could advise me which parts of the script need to be altered.
regards Ian
