Its been a longer than I thought project, but worth it. Building the control panel was more work than I realized but taking my time to make sure I had it straight in my head paid off. I have successfully cut test parts today, and aside from the typical plasma table issues they came out great. My ohm...

Well the new pc fixed the com errors, so now its on to calibrating my torch and hopefully cutting my first parts.
Thanks for all the help.

Yes sir, Joey I have gone through every step and the windows firewall is completely turned off. I ran the tuner, 3 times. Then I have gone and verified all the steps manually. The only step I haven't done is the last one in the tb 270 that is inconsistent according to tb 270. There is absolutely not...

Once again I need some help, After sorting out all the setup for my motors/linear motion, I have everything working, home switches/home all, laser, torch is firing, touchoff is working, ect.. I try to run a job and get communication errors. Doing a stress test over and over and trying different thin...

Thanks again for all your help guys. I had a feeling it would be something simple. I corrected the dip switches and settings in the wizard and what do you know .995 revs per inch is less than a 32nd off. And at 400 ipm.

So if you tell it to move a certain distance and you have these sett...

UUHHHH do I have off and on backwards? If I do then yes it would be 12800. And that would be about right being off by a 2 thirds
I guess I assumed up was on and down was off?

I am going to change the resolution to 6400 and see if that makes a difference.
Ill be back.
Thanks Jared

Ok here is a better picture and a picture of the manual for my drive 20240417_115814.jpg 20240314_171612 zoomed.jpg I think this is right 5=on 6=off 7=on 8=off In checking this I did notice I left the 9 and 10 the way they came. The default though was a 24v input and I switched the dip switch on the...
