All axes fast jog but in the + X it acts like incremental

Post by beebee »

Machine seems find the x and y are set at a fast jog of 80 ipm. The X moves normally at 80 in the - direction fine.
When it move to the + it looks like it is moving but in very small moves.
Note: I changed the homing direction of the X to be +. Is there any reason for this to cause problems. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... an8vtCD3yj
Added a video of the jogging issue. Looks like the video is still uploading

was the X axis moving in both directions just fine before you made the change? or is this an outstanding issue?

I believe it was working before I modified the homing. I suppose I can revert back to the old X homing and see what happens.

You need to stick with ONE thread, yours. You have us hopping between all your posts. ;)
Restart the machine.
DON'T home it.
JUST push the axis button on the VCP (Make sure INC is not lit) and see if you can move the axis back and forth. Click on the Tortise/Hare to go from slow jog to fast jog. See if all axis move smoothy.

You can home in any direction you want. Just make sure the switch is configured on that end and tell the Wizard which input it is on. And configure homing PROPERLY.

You don't have your X axis soft limits set:

CNC12 v. 4.20 coordinates file
Axis Minus Plus Return Return Return Return
Limit Limit #1(G28) #2(G30) #3 #4
X 0.0000 0.0000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000 0.00000

Please post a screen shot of your Input/Output screen and your homing and travel limits screen. Use Windows 10 SNIPping tool.

I thought it was a new topic so I started a new thread. My apologies.
I’ll regroup and follow all the stringent Guidelines tomorrow for describing a new issue. Thanks for the help. You’ve been very helpful.

Its fine, but you could consider it a BUILD thread. All the information is within that thread.
No stringent guidelines...me, I like it in one place, but thats me...picky picky. :D

Yup. Your both right. A build thread. Having all the information in the same location streamlines the troubleshooting. My mistake for starting a new post.
