Re: All axis only move in positive direction
I finally got my machine to work correctly but only after completely disconnecting all stop switches and then crimping the connectors to make sure all wires to the switches and the board had solid contact. I don't know exactly why this worked but I was able to run a complete program and finish my ...

Re: All axis only move in positive direction
to cazuroweste;
When I put my machine together, I had the same binding problem and fixed it by reaming the 2 holes on the top plates that the Z drive screws go through. The holes were tapered slightly causing the lead screws to bind. You don't want to go over the size they are supposed to be, just ...

When I run a program in "dry run", it will do all the positive moves correctly until it runs out of travel, ignoring all ...

That was the one and only time it worked. Now it only moves positive again whether in setup, dry run, or full run. Other ...

All axis only move in positive direction
All axis will only move in the positive direction. This is true whether in manual setup or trying to run a program. When in setup, you can move the axis in any increment in a positive direction but then the position resets to 0 and it won't move back. When trying to run a program, I can see the ...
