Hi All
My first post but i have been lurking for awhile.
Firstly i would like to thank Audioandy for his help with my safety circuit and TonyD for his wiring schematic and pics.
I am nearly finished with my first build and today i was able to get my motors to turn.
I have a problem with my npn no proximity switches (LJ12A3-4-Z/BX) or it could just be me.
( 1/5Pcs Inductive Proximity Sensor Detection Switch NPN DC 6-36V LJ12A3-4-Z/BX UK | eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-5Pcs-Inductive-Proximity-Sensor-Detection-Switch-NPN-DC-6-36V-LJ12A3-4-Z-BX-UK-/390603350619?pt=UK_BOI_Electrical_Components_Suppl ies_ET&var=&hash=item5af1c6225b) )
If i connect one directly to the PMDX126 it does what it's supposed to in mach3.
If i parallel two as the PMDX manual shows it trips in mach3
11263
Am i missing something in the mach settings or do i need different sensors?
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Bruce
