Re: Homebuilt tool touchoff block
I have it figured out. My machine was already grounded. I used some alligator wire extension and traced it back to the loss connection. I made a connector at the spindle so I could have a quick disconnect for my block. That is where the problem lied. When I connected the alligator clip to the bit an...

Homebuilt tool touchoff block(resolved)
I could use some assistance if anyone is willing to help. I'm trying to configure my touchoff block. I wired it to the schematic attached. My tool is grounded but when I run the auto z function it doesn't trigger the z axis to stop. The spindle is grounded to the machine. This is a one wire configur...

X and Y axis exceeded
Hi everyone, I just finished my first cnc and testing a few thing out. I'm not sure what I did but now when I'm in the center of the bed trying to calibrate the movement of the machine, I get an x and y axis travel limits exceeded when I enter in MDI g1x1 or g1y1 The axis works fine when I ender g1z...

Limit Switch Wiring
So, I'm very green, this is my first machine. I am kind of lost when it comes to limit switch wiring. I have a total of 7 limit switch 3 for homing and 3 for over travel, the last one is for squaring the Y axis. From my understanding and I may be wrong, but I will need to have each set of limit swit...

5/24v Signal Stepper Drivers
Hello Everyone,
So if this is a noob question I apologize in advance, This is my first build. My question is that my stepper drives take a 5/24v signal and I was wondering if I could connect them on the screw terminals, or do I have to use the DB25 connector since they are steppers?
