Mach4 V5000 G91 causing problems
« on: January 11, 2023, 09:49:09 PM »
Hello, i upgraded to v5000 few day ago and since I have constantly getting random Z dives on G91 G00 Z0.0000 (Incremental move for switch offset distance comp). Sometimes it works sometimes it just dives till it triggers the Z safety switch.

ESS + mach4+ warprunner THC + touch sensor . I use Sheetcam for code gen

I have a touch probe and once it registers a touch on
Code: [Select]
(>>>Probe/Ref<<<), it will randomly either continue the code properly or decide to dive. This is with THC on or off , makes no difference.This code has been running for the past year flawlessly on version 4809. 

Code example @ line : N0320
Code: [Select]

UPDATE:

So I went back to 4809 and run the same code did about 60 pierces and 0 issues.
With v5000 I got the weird random dive at least once every 3-5 pierces.

Over on the Warp9TD forum, Andy is suggesting there may be an issue with 5000 and is recommending 4809.
