Re: Cannot connect machine
I should have added that the red led on the pcb initially starts with "L" then displays 5.....don't know if this is significant.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks
Charlie

Re: Z+ Overtravel Trying To Home Z axis
The home switch is the first one. It should hit the switch, slow down, come off the switch & look for its next marker pulse from the spindle motor. You should be able to test the switch in the diagnostics. It should be on the first page below the X diagnostic. Thanks for the info - this made sense,...

Re: Toolpost - Six station Baruffaldi
Hi Moray,
Thanks for the tip - I have bypassed the low air signal - still doesn't work from toolpost selection & green button but it now is changing during program!!
I can live with this for now as I can MDI toolpost for setting.
Thanks again - much appreciated.

I also have a low air pressure warning but I assume this has nothing to do with it - I actually have 130psi. I have been trying various "phase" ...
