it is set at $23=3
I’m looking specifically for $3, not $23.
oh sorry, $3=0
Okay, try this:
$3=2
and I think you’ll have to change
$23=0
But be prepared to stop the motors.
ok…I reversed the steppers, set $3 to 3 and $23 to 3. Jogging and homing now work as they should. What next?
When I home the machie and get position, it still says it is -528 -518
Can you see how the coordinates change as you move left and down? Do they increment or decrement?
they decrement or count down.
That’s good, right? I think.
Now let’s fix the coordinates again.
G10 L2 P1 X-530 Y-520
LOL …the location after homing is 266 261. When I set it to go to 0,0, it triggers the switches. instead of going to the lower left
So back at square 1? I’m trying to get my head around why left and down is positive…
When I move off of home, what direction should the numbers go?
Lower left corner should be 0,0 with positive numbers up and to the right. So home location should be 265, 260.
So in a standard X,Y quadrant view you’d be working exclusively in the upper right quadrant.
Actually, this might not be true for origins in the right/back. It may be working “correctly”. I’m not used to working in LightBurn that way.
ok…so at the upper right corner at the home position, the numbers are 265 and 260. but when I move off the home position, my numbers are incrementing. I must have screwed something up.
it was working, it was just moving too far
I think we might have had it right a while back. Let’s do this one more time. After homing, run $# and ?.
