Thanks mmurray70, Yes ... this is why I needed to reverse the gain signs. A cut move was negative instead of positive on all axis.
Yes, I calculated what I needed for the cutting parameters correctly; however, for some reason I entered the rapid parameters ... Thanks!
I also reversed the signs on the "Input Gain and Output Gains" on all three channels.
Now I am getting correct movement direction and "Single Stepping" also works correctly on the simple "Box" NC code.
Now I will start testing for accuracy.
Question: If I am not seeing cutting moves exactly as programmed, like 1.0" via NC code, do I start adjusting the "Axis Parameters, Cuts/Inch" on the "Tool Setup" to correct this? I made a quick test on the X-axis after I got the Trajectory Planner/Gain Signs correct and I am seeing about 0.005" deviation on a 1.0" move; however, it does return back to zero on a dial indicator I used.
I am going to need help on getting the rest of the electronics wired correctly to KFLOP/Kanalog.
My first challenge I am experiencing is ... I moved the X-axis via KMotionCNC jog until it hit the limit switch and it disengaged ICON relay, which shut the power to the drive/amp down. I then had to manually move the axis off the limit switch before I could get ICON relay to engage again.
How do I over come this such that KLOP/Kanalog shuts the axis movement down at the limit switch such that I can manually jog the axis in the opposite direction with KMotionCNC to get the axis off the limit switch?
I know this is obvious for those who know how to read schematics; however, I am still challenged with comprehending the "Tree325_Schematic" below and it would seem this is the next steps to retrofit this machine. I was hoping to get all the switches/MPG pendant working before working on the spindle motor.
