Temporarily disable limits?
Hi all, I've got a couple of Centroid installs that I have done that have required me to disable limits in certain situations. One situation is during homing. I've run into situations where a machine was moved when powered off and I can do a homing routine because there are machine limits in place. ...

Re: Slow Jogging
There sure is! I missed that one!
One thing I did notice is that with the pendant it jogs fast in all directions.. I like that just fine but it might be worth noting that the VCP and pendant jog behavior is different.

Slow Jogging
I'm seeing slow jogging on this version...
When using the jog buttons on the VCP positive moves work at full speed, but negative moves on XYZ seem to go at half speed... Is this a new setting I'm not aware of?
Report attached.

Re: Problem Saving VCP Aux Key Setting
That seemed to work. I guess something in the wizard isn't writing that setting correctly...
I didn't know you could change those values manually like that.

Problem Saving VCP Aux Key Setting
Hi all! I'm running into an issue... I've done a pretty extensive VCP reorganizing and things have gone fine up to the point where I am trying to assign one of my last macros to a skin event in the Acorn Wizard. When I try to change Skin event 18 to M77 (a custom macro that I made) the setting never...

Re: Who is Eric Schimelpfenig
We’re saying the same thing Gary you just did a way better job at explaining it :) If you’re talking about a single axis, let’s say an X axis where the sensor is mounted on a moving gantry, that sensor can be used to home with a metal target and also on the other end of the axis there can be another...

Re: Who is Eric Schimelpfenig
If you want a limit trigger on the end of each axis mount the sensor on a part of the machine that moves. You can have one sensor trigger for homing, and use that same sensor to alarm out if there is an overtravel situation
