Re: Changes in Wizard not saved, cannot set Home

The Wizard did generate a cncm.hom file, as specified in the Wizard.

lI cannot use the Wizard, because the cncm.hom file became corrupted when I opened it with Notebook. Apparently, it appended a txt, which is not visible.
I have posted several times the direction the table must move to go to the ...

Re: Changes in Wizard not saved, cannot set Home

I have a brand new problem, not with CNC12. One of my last efforts to fix the home problem, I edited the last three lines, in the cncm.hom file. I wanted to add a delay P1 after the M26/Z and the Y and X.
Apparently, the editor, Notepad put a txt at the end of the filename, and now Wizard will not ...

Re: Changes in Wizard not saved, cannot set Home

This is not a new build. This machine has run for over 2 years on Mach3, including a 4th. axis, cutting splines, machibouning parts with 6 tool changes using a tool touch-off block, using input 4.

I have built 4 cnc machines, one a Lagun FTV knee mill, twice the size of a Bridgeport, using DC ...

Re: Changes in Wizard not saved, cannot set Home

In all these back and forth searches to learn why my machine will NOT move to the home switches, I have sent a post of my machine settings. None of the setting requirements, ie., have changed from day 1. My other original question was: Why are all the home directions settings in the Wizard reset ...

Re: Changes in Wizard not saved, cannot set Home

The Heartbeat never turns off when closing CNC12 to save settings.

The Heartbeat begins blinking as soon as the Centroid Acorn board is powered up, and the CNC12 has not even been started.

How can the settings ever get written to the machine code, if the Heartbeat never turns off, indicating the ...

Yes, all (3) of the Home switches show green, and turn red on manual activation, as ...

I installed the file "Gecko G540 as stepper drive only with acorn inputs and outputs" since this comes closest to my stepper drive connecting to Acorn with a DB25 cable.

Then I edited the inputs from Home all switches and Limit all switches ...
