when i run the referance cycle the x and y axis reference but the z axsis does not i can hear the driver working and there is a red led on the driver box in the cabinet.(is there anyway of moving head down manually?
hope you can help its doing my head in.

What machine ?, what controller ? give us a clue.

Failing that just press the button marked 'Nuke the Z axis '

apparently its a "cnc router rye ma 1500 with cc100 controller"... sounds to me like the Z-axis is running in reverse.... and trying to home somewhere north of the pole star
