DDSCV1.1 3 and 4 axis offline motion controller

[Boyan Silyavski]

Just made a short video how to probe Z0 without any setting gauge only having a touch plate of known thickness. As i told before, there are many ways to do it but the simplest way is the best. plus you dont need a setting gauge / though its nice to have one anyway./

In short
-you measure your plate thickness using digital vernier
-make sure you know your back off distance after probing, mine is 5mm
-rest plate on table and hit probe
-once operation is finished you gio and manually input in DRO for Z =probe thickness + backoff distance , my probe is 19.3+5mm=24.3mm
-hit probe again and when operation finishes from now on you can use your touch probe, controller knows your probe thickness
-from now on X0 and Y0 manually via the DRO.
-If you hit the button Zero ALL/ XYZ/ at the same time you have to repeat again the procedure of letting the controller know your touch probe thickness.
-Simple as that, just use slow probe speed~300 or less mm per minute






Another detail. Seems that the controller screen is prone to scratching even when wiping it gently. Not scratching, but marks are left. To be always perfect, buy 2$ film protector for any mobile, cut it toio screen size with scissors and then unstick the original screen protector.

If you know welding mask LCD disposable screen protector on welding mask, thats what the screen is made from, sth like PTEG plastic. So needs a protection. Its not a big deal, as its not seen when light IS on or until you examine it very closely but better use it protected. Fortunately the keyboard itself seems quite fine. Which was my main concern.

Jazz, did you find out why the "tool offset" are in the parameters list? If yes, have you tried it? If not, what is your thought about? That will help to build the tool change routine/pages for the controller. Thank you
Cheers 🍻

So is it extremly complex or relatively easy?

Thanks for the reply Boyan. Managed to sort things out. Homing OK now.
