hi.. try offset the gantry home point.. if cant then.. phewww...

sorry. re-read your post. The problem is the home sensor relative to the home pulse. You're catching the wrong home pulse. a 10mm offset sounds about right for a 360 degree error. You need 50% +/- 15 % to ensure you always zero to the same phys

you can not just take the motor off and change it. the motors have a home pulse singnial. the motor has to be in a certian position the home pulse position when the flag hits the sensor. When you remove the motor you have to mark the motor gear when

The camera crashing is usually a fault with the encoder on the Y motor assembly. someething to do with not finding a home pulse I think. Anyway, replace the motor/encoder and recalibrate and you should be good to go

What is the (initial position) ratio of pulse counts to home encoder pulse (relative to the home sensor). It should be 50% +/- 15% Run this test several times in between a warm up. I bet your numbers are all over the place. I bet you have a loos

Tom, Its not the scale but the switch itself because while zeroing, if you activate front limit switch for Y axis, Beam should travel back to look for home pulse. It looks like switch signal does not reach to the system.It is really hard to trace the

all the motors on the head are the same just the connecting cable are different length. the motors have a home position for the zero pulse that home position has to match when the flag passes through the homing sensor all servos have a home position

I have GSM1 (OS/2) machine and it does not zero. The Y axis comes to all the way front to hard stop. I replaced the limit switch before the hard stop and can not find any way to test the signal from limit switch in diagnostic. I like to replace the c

Since you haven't received any useful advise I will throw my 2 cents in. I do not know this machine but in general what you describe is an axis that does not get it's home pulse in time. Many machines will have an in-range sensor that gets flagged

Could every one out there help me to solve Homing's problem with Contact 3AVX machine? I can not finish homing my machine cause error message as follows: "Head 1 - max index pulse iterations reached" Many thanks,
