Re: Laser Alignment

I was not able to replicate any issues or the Laser offset in the Wizard not working.

Id be happy to try a TeamViewer session with you to try and pinpoint this issue.

Re: Laser Alignment

Re: Laser Alignment

I think your using the machine coordinate to find the laser Offset Try this Fire the torch on the material so that it makes a mark on the material. After firing the torch and marking the material, select the WCS 0 button on the VCP. Now enable the laser and jog the laser cross hair to the center of ...

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion

The Overall turns ratio is an absolute. There is only one Overall turns ratio number. As you found your Overall turns ratio is 1 or really close to it. With the Overall Turns ratio set correctly.

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion

Thats what I'm thinking.

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion

Hard to tell from the picture but I had the dip switches confused. I was looking at 7-10 in that last picture. After closer inspection 5-8 look to be 5=ON 6=OFF 7=ON 8=ON This would mean the drives are set to 1600 steps. Digger drives closer look.png This makes more sense the 1600 steps is closer to...

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion

Digger.

Looking at the Photo album.

I see the Drives do not have a 4000 step setting.

It Appears they are set as OFF OFF ON ON which is 3200 Steps.

These are your current drives in the Pictures correct?
