Sherline w/Mach 3
« on: December 25, 2007, 12:54:45 PM »
Hello everyone. I just installed Mach 3 (Sherline Version) on my Sherline this weekend. I have went through the Setup Video Tutorials but I am having a problem.

When I use my up/down arrows both my Y and A axis move. From Mach 3 jog controller, I can use the mouse to press the A-axis button and I get no movement, only when pressing the Y-axis buttons do I get A movement.

Any comments on what may be happening and how to go about fixing it would be appreciated.

EDIT: Figured it out. The Y-Axis was slaved to the A-axis.

Rename your pic to something unique as the forum only allows a file name to be posted once.
