Help with config


ereibsane
 

I'm not sure if I have a config problem with Mach3 or my post
processor, but I'm sure this is the place to find out ;-).

There is a pretty simple file under files here on the forum called
Test File.tap. When I load the file in Mach3 it stops at line 159 -
which is line 161 in my editor - and reads "G28.1 Z5". This line
appears several time earlier in the file without a problem.

My theory is that it is a reference problem - my Z Axis DRO shows
something like 42". This a plasma setup and the Z Axis only has
about 8" of travel.

The second file is called KCroy.TAP and it will not load beyond line
967 - 969 in my editor - which reads "G02 X4.987 Y2.189 I-2.466
J1.351" I commented it out and it then loaded to 3484 - 3485 in my
editor - " X7.401 Y2.588 I3.408 J0.095", so I commented that out and
stopped at 3494 "G02 X2.538 Y2.354 I1.858 J-0.219". With these lines
commented, the file will run but obviously not a completed design.

I don't even have a guess on this one. My post proc. is set for
Absolute Coordinate values and Incremental I J for G02 G03 Circular
so I may have it configured incorrectly. I put my post processor out
in the files as Mach3-Mill XR-onecnc.

Some details on my setup - OneCNC Profile XR for posting, Latest
Mach3 as of a week ago, MP-1000 THC, and a DynaCNC table.

Any assistance in getting this final step of my migration finish
would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Eric:

Not sure abouy the first, Id have ot see the code, the second is easy, use the Config/IJ mode to switch
to IJ Inc. This usually fixes that one..

Thank you Art, I'll take a look at that. I put the G Code files and
Post Proc. under Files/Chain Gang Designs here in the forum if they
are helpful.

G28.1 Z5 says: Move the head rapidly to +5 inches then go find the Z
reference (home) switch.

My theory is that it is a reference problem - my Z Axis DRO shows
something like 42". This a plasma setup and the Z Axis only has
about 8" of travel.
Does this have the floating head and Z switch? The post should call
for something like G28.1 Z.5 and the head should move to .5 then move
at the referencing speed (set in config/homing) unit the tip touches
the metal and starts to shove the head upward and trips the swtich.
This should zero the Z DRO and then the next move is to raise the head
to take out the overtravel and leave the tip just setting on the
material and the Z at zero. Since there is probably no way to program
the post to automatically do a reference just prior to the next pierce
after moving "?" inches (mine is set for 20 inches) like we do in
SheetCAM, you will need to add the reference in manually or on every
pierce.

I could not find your code in the files. If you want you can post
them to the support site for the MP1000-THC (CandCNCSupport yahoo
group)in the files section and I can help you get'r goin!
