SmartBOB controllers and dedicated accessories / Problem with the y axes motor 3 A and B

« on: January 28, 2017, 02:29:15 PM »

I am hoping someone could advise me on a problem in mach4 using PMDX 424 board. (I had a hard time getting Mach 4 to see the 424 board). This is the first time I powered up my control panel. I can only move the Y axis forward and back if the jog Y+ or Y- button is held down. Once you release the + or - button, i have to hit the Disable button - then hit the enable button for either button to work again. My X axis and Z axis are fine.  The only time i can Jog my Y axis without resetting the enable button is if the Incremental Jog step button is on. Then I can move the Y to the + or - without resetting the enable button. I double checked my wiring. Mach 4 is not showing any errors. Mapping on the motors are correct. I have not activated any stops yet, I'm only jogging the machine. So why just on the Y axis do I have to reset the disable or enable button to get it to move again?
Thank you
Mike

Cables, connectors, switches, contactors, sensors and other items / Micro Switch on Z axes and using proximity,on the PMDX424 board

I have 6 Proximity switches hooked up to my PMDX 424 , to J16 and j17 terminal 1-6 after reading other post, i understand the hook up for the Proximity switches. My question is, do i use the j16 or j17 ground to run to the micro switch on my z axes and return from micro switch to j17, terminal 7 ?? using the N/O side of the switch ??.
 my plan is to use  J17  terminal 8 as a touch plate connection.
Thanks
Mike
