Re: Tool setter positioning
Clint’s macro uses g30 p2. Following ligelo’s advice, I changed p2 to the correct coordinates and it works as expected. Thanks again for your help!

Re: Tool setter positioning
You can use G28 / G30 / G30 P2 / G30 P3 and set to be any position you like. Navigate as follows from main menu F1 Setup / F1 Part / F9 WCS Table / F1 Return. You now choose 1 of the 4 Return points (to match Clint's macro) and enter the appropriate co-ords remembering they are Machine Co-ords NOT ...

Tool setter positioning
Hi. I’m using the mfunc6_clint macro. There’s a part in the program where the tool moves to the fixed position sensor. It goes to x0,y0. I thought the settings for the position was in the wizard. But no matter what I set it to, it always goes to x0,y0. Am I missing something? Any help is appreciated...

Common GND question
Hello,
I recently decided to redo my controller box and disconnected everything. I can’t remember what to connect common to. Is it the gnd connection on the power supply?? Thank you!

Re: Npn nc proximity sensors
Can someone help explain the order in which the wires go?

Npn nc proximity sensors (Resolved)
I don’t understand how to wire this. Here’s the diagram. My sensors won’t all function when I do it the way I think it’s supposed to go.

Re: Hsc86h Stepper driver
I have the db25 breakout board on standby but haven’t tried it yet since I’m short on space. Hiya jojo, I have a couple of these right angle style DB25 breakounts on my Acorn installs.

Re: Hsc86h Stepper driver
Thanks for the help y’all. My problem can be traced back to my not understanding that the alarm on my driver is set to NO as opposed to NC. Also I didn’t know that in acorn you can change the input to detect either a NO or NC sensor. So this issue can be called resolved? Yes it can! Thank you again...
