Re: Lathe G code program debug help needed
I believe you are Feed per revolution instead of feed per minute ,and if you put 8 in FPR ,Acorn will run away to the max extent of your z axis and blow thru any limit you have set up, home or limit ask me how i know .
I looked at your g code file for facing and you had it in a G99 instead of a G98 ...

Re: How to change the direction on New pendant
Yes it is correct as to your drawing ,it would be pretty funny if it was not ,as i have been running it that way for over ten years ,guess i will just live with it and mark a Plus and Minus on the control.

Re: How to change the direction on New pendant
Hi Marty, when i jog the pendant the X- jogs away from the part instead of towards the part, and the z- axis jogs towards the chuck as it should.

Re: How to change the direction on New pendant
I tried inverting the signal but if you do that then your jog buttons on your , pc screen are the wrong direction and then right on the pendant .
