Hi Neale, My working machining area is only about 450mm x 550mm with 150 on Z. I shall mainly be machining hardwoods and high quality close grain softwoods for my Guitar Building. Possibly some plastics. I decided on the Nema 23 2nm as they seemed the correct size for my requirements after reading many posts. Neither to big or too small. I knew that I would probably have problems with the combined board but could get better drives when I knew more.
I have been looking in more detail at my config and feel I have some conflicts. I would be grateful if you (anyone..) could look them over and see any obvious problems..
I have had to Type it out as I cant seem to get screen grab on my Mach3 XP Desktop..
I hope these are readable, they look awfully small.
I was turning enable on and off in Output Signals and noticed that on Enable1 (pin 12) did nothing if Enable 2,3 and 4 were off.
If I turned on Enable 2 (pin 4) then the X axis works in jog.
If I turned on Enable 3 (pin 13) Nothing moved..
If I turned on Enable 4 (pin 5) then Axis 4 and Z work.. in jog..
Hope that makes sense..
This is before I get to Motor Tuning..
I appreciate that are concerned for me to get my build as close to what I require prior to spending too much money but I am not much of a Theorist.. Ideally, I like to see something working to understand it.. I am sure your 2nd build will be far more specific to your requirements as from everything you have learned from building No.1.. You cant deny me the same opportunity.. Thanks.
