The machine needs to be enabled before trying to move it using the wizard. I know that is obvious but it's happened to me before and I was scratching my head for a while. lol
I created an updated steps per unit calculator a little while back that might make it easier.
The latest version download is in the 5th post down.
https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=43830.msg281953#msg281953Just put the stepsCalc.mcs file in the Mach4 Wizards directory.
To use:
- select the axis radio button; the current steps/unit auto fills in text box below radio buttons.
- fill in the distance you want it to move in 'move distance'
- fill in velocity in 'move velocity'
- press incremental move and wait for machine move to complete
- after the move, measure actual distance machine moved and fill in the 'actual distance' box
- hit calculate
- press set counts to set the new calculated counts/unit in the Mach4 control settings.
The wizard should update the settings for any child motors for the axis as well.
