M11?
I ran into this before, the Fusion PP was putting an M11 command in my G-Code. Took that out, the problem went away

I am betting your problem is triggered by the M11, because your Acorn PLC program seems to include lathe code that assumes ...

As long as the upgrades come with a proper installer, I don't care what the financial part is. But if I'm going to pay, I don't want to also have to do the grunt work of a complete installation every time I upgrade. I've got all six inputs filled, most outputs, laser, rotary, ATC, CHIPS, custom VCP ...

The brake should normally be released any time the axis is powered

Does it matter if this occurs during hard stop homing? Is the axis 'powered' at this point, as the motion of the motors is independent of Acorn control when the C86 board is powered? I guess the drives are enabled (they have ...

I need advice on how to wire my Z-Axis brake.
I have Clearpath Servos wired via the C86 board with hard enable. When power is on, the Acorn board is powered up and the Servo motors are enabled. The motors slowly march to endstops and hard stop homing is completed. Works great. It all happens before ...

You only want the PWM output coming out of the DB25 connector, not from Output 2. Cutting the cable ensures that won't happen. Be careful when you cut the cable because the output 2 wire is actually the third wire in the ribbon. It should look like this when you are done:

I used this today to put some slots in the bottom of some box sides. It was easy and actually fun to use.
I learned (I think) that you can save the jobs by sharing the link and copying it. Then I saved that URL link to a bookmarked web page. That's a little bit of a cludge, but it's early days ...

If every release was similar to 5.2, I'd take option #1. That was a pretty big deal!
If they look more like 5.3 (including everything after 5.2), option #2.
These are pretty stark differences, but my personal satisfaction comes down to the value I'm paying for. I don't need to reflexively update.

It's a really useful feature. There are a bunch of informative videos in Keith's first post. The fourth video (Demo VC Video part 4 How to verify with CNC12 and pitfalls) shows that CNC12 adjusts the number of pulses the motor gets in the affected area to ensure it moves the corrected distance. It's ...

I understand. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful. If the Gecko drivers are involved its outta my league.

The PWM signal comes from output 2 through the DB25 connector. It does not come out of the output relays.
What you are seeing come out of Output4 is the laser enable signal.
If you haven't looked at the Laser Setup documentation, all of this will become clearer. Note how you need to modify the ...
