DRO not showing a straight line
« on: October 18, 2023, 09:04:51 PM »
Hello, was wondering if anybody has had the same issue and what might be wrong, or something I could change to fix this issue.
I'm using
Win10
CNC4 newbie
TB 6600 Drivers
Nema Stepper 23 Motors
ESS MB3 BOB
Mach4 4809
ESS 283
Machine was returning to Z0 and I noticed a triangle in the return path.
See attached files.
Also included gcode file i used, changed to txt. you will need to change back to .gcode

the path is showing all the moves after the cut it finished cutting
you started at 0,0 and when it finished you went back to 0,0

I'm very sorry for the subject saying DRO. I apologize for that. It should say Tool Path Window.

Its probably just a glitch in the tool path display - if it does not affect the work then just ignore it.

PEACE
