Re: Can Clearpath SDSK & Hybrid Steppers be connected to C86ACCP ?
I'm mot sure if the 100 ohm resistors for enable, & step and direction signals are required on the Acornsix for the Clearpath steppers which are required on the Acorn. I I used a small breadboard I had lying around to mount the resistors to just to make the install a little easier. My experience...

Re: USB Switch
If you have an older desktop PC around you can try TrueNAS, it's free and works great as a shared network storage solution. Problem I found with off the shelf NAS is support after production ends. After two NAS systems which weren't able to be supported to my satisfaction after production ended, I s...

Re: ATC/Auto Dust Shoe conversion
Looks great, does your post processor calculate the height of the dust shoe to material?

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.
yeah if you bail mid homing cycle you can sometimes interrupt the cycle while the axes are un paired. there is a command that re-pairs them after it is square'd up in the home program...so, if you cancel out after it un-pairs but before it re-pairs then the machine is left in the un-paired state. a...

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.
Chris, I haven't run into this issue with G30 until this release. I did not set Z value at 20.8099, this is being written by the Wizard. My max Z travel is set to 14 7/8". 20.8099 is my machine Y value for the touch plate. Can you help identify where the 20.8099 Z value is being generated? The ...

Re: homing travels in wrong direction

Reduce your max speed settings until you get the correct operation of the machine to give yourself more time to react to hit cycle stop ...

Re: CNC12 v5.07 rev14 now available for download.
When I save the G30 settings to machine Z 0 then home the machine, that is when I notice the G30-Z value is being over-written with the G30 X value. If I save the G30 settings, then exit, restart CNC 12, then home, that is when I notice the over-write of G30-Z. It could also be over-written when zer...
