Problem resolved. I changed a move command at line line 31 to a lower number to prevent Z from going beyond home. I also had to make a similar change in one of the other files for this project. I thank everyone for all of their expertise. No other changes made

CNCSNW I will be able to modify travel limit for Z tomorrow PM but am unsure of the proper input. I am guessing something like Zhome+.060. I have very small movement beyond Z home sensor before hard stop. I could move sensor or flag to increase a small amount. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks ...

V2.20 Chips is loaded

I did not see line 31. Good catch. I only have approx 5.2" above Z0 to Zhome. This job is a bowl file purchased on line. I will try. another file that I have previously run that is good.
Thanks guys

cnckeith thank you for your hellp. These are the results from this mornings tests.

1-looks like the TT is not configured properly? Those errors occur anytime I plug/unplug my TT device. I should not have used a phono plug for the connector. I will replace the connector

2-also i dont' like those ...

When the spindle is on its way home at the end of the fixed TT touchoff the spindle does not stop at its home position and the spindle motor faults. The machine has been ...

Nigelo thank you for your response. So I repeated the start of the install of CHIPS a little while ago and when I got to the point of selecting the location for the new CHIPS button CNC12 went away as before. But this time I moved document away that remained on the display screen and found the VCP ...

I am preparing to setup CHIPS on my router and I am thinking there must be a standard image I can use for the VCP button. Are the users generating their own or is there a standard SVG image available?
thank you

I want to tune my dual motor Y axis motors. Teknics requires a macro that moves Y axis repeatedly from a point and back with a 1 second delay between movements. Distance of Movement isn't critical but can be 15-25". The time for all of the movements can be a minute or so. I am not comfortable ...

It appears to me that the schematic for the Rev 3 PCB is in error relative to relay pinouts at H7 header. Rev 3 shows the COM connections at bottom of the callout for OUT1 and OUT2 respectively. BUT IF you look at a photo from July of 2019 (my machine) it clearly shows the wires at H7 header NOT ...

Sorry about that. I must hack that report in the wrong folder. That is the only thing I have for V4.82. I trash older reports. Would it help if I reloaded V4.82 and made a report?
