thanks Russ

Re: X axis zero return

thanks Martin, the control is seeing the switch in the diagnostics so would you say I have an encoder problem? I'm assuming that the normal zero return method is that the axis moves until is see's the reference switch then the next encoder mark is the zero return? What parameters are ignored while h...

Re: X axis zero return

hi Martin, tried that just runs up to the hard overtravel switch. It moves quickly up to reference switch but doesn't decelerate like it normally does when it gets close to the reference switch.

X axis zero return

Good morning all, I've turned on my Cyclone this morning and she won't zero return in the x axis! I get error 510 (stroke limit) I've checked the reference switch that seems fine, does anyone know a way to check that the control is seeing that the switch is being made?

Re: correct parameters?

am I correct in saying that I need to set diagnostic 451.0 to 1 to set my machine for the six station Baruffaldi-TOE80 turret? if so how? I've tried to setting PWE to 1 in MDI as I did to input the main parameters but it doesn't let me make the change :-(
