Marty,

THank you for the reply. The code above was my homing cycle. It still wouldnt work. So i went back into the wizard and let the machine make a new homing sequence. Then i went back in and added the line of code for the ZRI input to #2 and copied it for X Y and Z as shown below. For whatever ...

Oh how life gets in the the way.. I stepped away from this project several years ago and now I am back at it trying to make it work. Before i left everything seemed to be working with my ZRI homing sequence set to one input (input 2) and with all my home switches being tied in series to input 5 ...

That's exactly what I did! It definitely works are frees up two inputs. I was also able to update the software to the latest revision to use the probe cycles.

So I was just messing around with the probing. It works awesome. Question.. when I probe a part for setup and the program returns the x and ...

The reason that doesn't work is you are referring to inputs 2, 3 and 4 on the m105/m106 moves. Make all of the M105/106 moves P-2. I would use a much lower feedrate. I used 0.1.


Thank you for the help and posting your homing code. I worked on it last night and got it working.

Can someone ...

Do I do anything with the homeall inputs? My p5?

This is the homing file I was using with 3 inputs on the acorn for ZRI.

N100 ;Check for open home switch
IF !#[50000 + #9822] THEN M225 #100 "HomeAll switch tripped!!!\nPlease clear before Homing.\n\nPress Cycle Cancel to end Homing"
IF !#[50000 + #9822] THEN GOTO 100

;Disable all limits
M94 /101 ...

Right i figured that part out with the P. I put all the ZRI inputs on one input "input 2" then changed your code to my input number. I ran the machine and tested it. The machine went to the home switch but did not back off and find the ZRI pulse.

I tried messing around with the code this morning. I put all the ZRI inputs on input 2 and my home all switches are on input 5 wired in series. I could not get it to work by changing the code. I really have ZERO experience with coding so any help would be appreciated. The below code is what I have ...

You can parallel up the ZRI inputs.


What does your cnc.hom program look like?

IN1 = X axis home/limit
IN2 = Y axis home/limit
IN3 = Z axis home/limit
IN4 = ZRI input. All axis in parallel

N100 ;Check for an open home switch
;First axis minus and plus
IF #21301 == 0 THEN #111 = 9 ELSE ...

Ok i think I can easily rewire this and add a contactor. Im using DMM drives.. can I just do the power estop to turn off power to just L1 and L2?


I have a two pole e-stop. One pole switches the e-stop input to acorn. The other is in the coil circuit of the e-stop contractor. The e-stop ...
