J325 axis referencing

[MadPickinSkills]

Hello all.
Well I finally got my phase adder hooked up and powered up my j325 for the first time today and it works! This was a big relief since I didnt know if it did. The monitor was inoperative when I bought it and I had it repaired. I was wondering if someone can clue me in on the axis referencing. I have all the manuals so I'm following the instructions to reference it. I can't get the machine to move all the way out in the Y axis without getting an overtravel error. It's clearly at least 2 inches from where it should be referenced. I can turn the controller off and then turn the servo via the access port to the correct location and then turn it back on, but I figured it would find it's 0 location by contacting the limit switch. Am I wrong or right?

thanks

Er..wrong. The 310 and 325 did not have ref switches. You simply jog the axis to about .1 from the little alignment arrows, y has a arrow tab on the right side of the knee, that lines up withe the slide casting. Z just jog so you can see about .1 of the quill. Then ref all axis in the plus direction. It will move and find a marker on the encoder from there.

Thanks for the help. Ya I re-read the instructions and I was doing it wrong. I was a little confused by the way it was stated I guess. Apparently you can move the axis while the screen is flashing, then press the R key and move them each in the + direction.

Thanks again
