Since resolving my last issue, I think I inadvertently changed the homing direction and now I don’t know how to correct. It’s going to top left instead of bottom left.
You need to go into edit - machine settings - vendor settings, and under X axis and Y axis you have to change “direction polarity” to negative or positive. I do not know combination for bottom left corner but you need to combine, for example, X direction polarity positive and Y direction polarity negative for bottom left corner, that is only example it is incorrect.
Or…
Enter $$ in the Console window. Then copy-paste the list of parameters in your reply. I will compare them with my S30 to see if we can determine what got boogered up. Once we get this fixed, do the $$ thing and make a copy of them in a text file.
I recommend not using the console for setting these things. They are bit mapped to an axes.
If you’ve never made a mistake in mentally creating bit-mapped values for these kinds of adjustments, then that’s great, but doesn’t happen much. It is prone to human error.
Lightburn handles this for you. Console is nice if you want to drive it around a bit, but is really a poor way to use such powerful software for configuring the firmware of a controller …
We rarely write things in assembler, for a number of reasons, mainly because it’s very prone to human error.
Just an opinion that I’ve developed over the decades –
@jkwilborn is exactly right. I will go one farther, change NOTHING just because some video or blog told you to. I just went through a LOT of trial and error with a CNC replacement board. Toggling bits for motion and homing direction is not as cut and dried as it may seem.
However, I do use the Console because I am not comfortable with using the LB interface. Not that it is bad, but that I find it difficult to scan for specific settings. Doing the $$ thing in the Console gives me a better view of all the parameters in one shot.
You forgot to add always backup the current configuration… it’s also much easier to do through Lightburn.
