Need Help MultiCam44
Hi, I have an older MultiCam 44. I bought it with the original electronics not working. I have installed servo motors in place of the original stepper motors. I am using Mach3. I have successfully determined the Mach3 steps per unit (inch) for the X and Z axis. The Y axis seems to be a bit of a problem.
I am hoping someone would be able to give me the steps per inch or the pitch. I am not able to calculate it, too many cogs and belts for this rack and pinion setup. The belt is an XL250. As far as I can tell the top MultiCam gear has 14 notches. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks 1 I'll give it a try. I tried to add more proximity sensors since I saw there were two on the original machine. Turns out they will work, but must still be wired thru a relay to give hard commands to Mach3 and stop the servos. Still trying to get it together. Must have had some software limiits in the original. Bilby
