Re: OPCON and USB-BOB

There are lots of joysticks for two axis moving, like in any RC control, or here is an example of a profile measuring machine in my job. But these are analogue, more throw, more speed, or in RC controls more travel speed depending on what is controlled. Uwe Uwe, I already asked about analog joystic...

Re: Enable outputs on Acorn

Yes, what he's talking about doing makes no sense at all. Hopefully he'll elaborate on the "why".

Re: Enable outputs on Acorn

I am using a DB25 interface for my stepper motor outputs. While using this are the enable outputs on H2 and H3 still active to use? If so are the active high or low for enabled? Please tell us what stepper drive you are using, most stepper drives are enabled by default and the ENA connection is not...

Re: Losing connection with open loop steppers.

Please post a CURRENT report from the machine. Anytime you have issues AND you have made machine changes you must post a new report so we can see your current settings. We can see how the machine is setup and look at your error log as to what the issue might be.

I have gone back through and used the PC tuner, and worked through Tech Bulletin 270. I downloaded all windows updates and verified that the firewall is still off. I am getting th...

Re: Ping Test Failed (10.168.41.2)

I’m not sure how to add the report.zip file if I can’t connect to Acorn to create the file. I can’t check for com issues if I can’t connected to Acorn. The only thing I was able to check was the ping test. My bad, you stated a reboot fixed it so I was thinking you were able to connect again. I'd tr...

Re: Ping Test Failed (10.168.41.2)

Hi Lee, if I were a betting man I put money on com errors. Please post a current report from the machine as this is needed to see your machine configuration and error log. Please see this topic when asking for help and you should be running the latest version of CNC12 which is 5.08 https://centroidc...

Re: mfunc6 disappearing after restarting CNC12

There are setting in the wizard to tell CNC12 that you are using a custom M6, did you set these?
