Hello,
I am new to mach 4 and Pokeys and I have a few questions.
1) I managed to setup my motors and limit switches (+ and - switch for each axis with the - switch used as home switch as well)
During homing, it wil home one axis and then stop moving as it says - limit tripped. It does not move away. How do I get my machine to reverse a bit and not stopping everything because a limit switch is activated.
2) I use a popendant, which works fine only the direction is reversed, how can I correct this.
3) I am using a VFD to control my spindle and I am using both relays to control direction Spinde Fwd Relay 1 and Spindle Rev Relay 2. I also connected pin 17 (0-10V) to correct input on the VFP but cannot control the speed. My VFD is correctly programmed. Spindle speed is set to max 24000 and in the spindle tap of the pokeys plugin pin 17 is programmed as I read in this forum. What am I missing?
thanks a lot,
Joris
