Adding on to my previous email.
I set the default to Radius mode. I move x -0.100, DRO goes to -0.100. Dial Indicator mores -0.049.
Next step; I found where the "scale factor" is under Control > motors > counts per unit. Mine was set to 10000. After a couple tries, 20,000 moves the dial indicator -0.095 when the DRO shows -0.100.
Next step; changed counts per unit to 21,000. Now the dial indicator moves -0.100.
I am going to check Z. Then go back to diameter mode.
Z is stranger. DRO says I moved 0.100. Dial Indicator says 0.058.
Count per unit now set to 16,500 on Z. Dial indicator moves 0.100.
Comments?
But another new anomaly. I am trying a turning cycle. It seems after each pass, the compound moves in the -Z direction. In other words, each pass, the compound does not return to Zi. It starts to the left on each successive pass. Any thoughts?
