How do you go to "Z" or Home at 100% jog speed
« on: April 10, 2008, 04:07:39 PM »
Hi,
Hopefully someone can answer this for me.
I have my jog speed set at 100% which is about 200 ipm. After I make any moves
and want to go to "Z" or home the machine will only go about 50 ipm
Now, that being said, I have the setting to 100% in homing and limits.
Am I missing something or is the software just setup that way?
Please help,
Thanks,
Brian

If you have the homing set to 100% in homing and limits it should home at your Rapid speed.
Post your xml and I will see if I can find anything amiss.

Well I can't seem to do it.
It's too big to send.
I'll try to email it to you directly.
Thanks,
Brian

Your xml will not be too big, it will only be a fe KB, what you will need to do though is rename it or the forum will probably reject it, either that of zip it with a different name for the zip.

OK first thing I see is the Slow Jog is set to 4.9%, not sure if this will affect homing but change it to 100% and see
You can find it by pressing the Tab key and in the popout windo just clcik on the DRO, type 100 and press enter on the keyboard. To get rid of the PopOut just Tab again

Also in Homing and limits you have it set to 20% for each axis. Are you sure this is the correct xml as you said perviously you had it at 100%

That's another strange deal,
every time I change the jog speed to x% it changes it back to 4.9%
also I have the home and limit % to 100%.
At least that is what the screen says.
? how can this be?

your xml says its at 2o% so not sure why you see it as 100%, also with the slow Jog are you remembering to press the Enter (return key) on your keyboard after you have typed the 100?
