Thanks, I just read about the command, but is there a way to change that using the interface control box?

 

Awesome, Thanks!

 

@Peter Van Der Walt would it be possible to add a check size feature like in the control software?

 

Good morning, I've read thru the GRBL links you've posted here. i'm still not quite understanding a few things but maybe i'm just overlooking something.. How do I write my own machine parameters and input them into the controller? Is it better to just use one of the presets and change the value's? Can i write my own code using the openbuilds control app and then transfer that to my controller? I'm just having a tough time grasping that concept i guess... thanks in adavance..

 

I engineered my own CNC but it's nothing unlike most normal 3 axis systems. 2000mm x 1500mm. I mainly had the CNC4Newbie machine in mind when designing this one. I'd be willing to bet the lead screws are a bit different sized though so maybe just a tweak of the steps and jogging feedrate.

So say I use the CONTROL on my PC to set up the parameters in the black box. How do I load those parameters to the touch interface?

 

Hello,

I have a problem since installing my openbuilds interface.

At the first launch everything works normally, interface not updated, I test to make a tactile probe, the macro is launched and the interface turns off and on again in a loop. I stop everything and tell myself that I will come back later.

a few weeks, months have passed and I'm getting back to it, I started by updating my interface via the usb C cable, no particular problem.

I specify that my CNC sphynx works perfectly before installing the interface.

So today I'm running the updated interface, and it just shuts off and turns on over and over again, until the black box settings are lost. I disconnect the interface, adjust the blakcbox again (end of races, reversal of the axes, hard and soft limit ...)

I run a whole at home, everything is fine (the cnc was stopped at 400 in x and 400 in Y (stroke of 800 / 800- "sphynx 1010")

I launch a displacement in X of 400mm to validate, ok it's good.

I run the same in Y and there, the cnc advances a few mm and tells me to be in hard limit, I blame the fault I try to "force" the movement to a free movement of distance it still advances a few mm (50) and cut, and I can do this multiple times sometimes by 1mm sometimes by 80 or so.

You will find screenshots of the Y displacement errors.

I thought about a soft limit problem, but the black box tells me that it is in hard limit, I checked my limit switches and they work well during the tests, I specify that I have nothing added to '' other apart from the interface, no other modification (the next to come will be to integrate double limit switches on each ax to remove the soft limit and be only in limit to be quiet)

I join the screenshots, thanks in advance for your ideas of things to check and sorry for the novel.

Hello there, I want to buy the product but I can't find the weight specifications, because I want to import it to Ecuador. Can someone help me with that information?

 

I have an error when I go to probe...
"Probe file not found"
what gives?

 

Awesome, I already figured it out earlier. There was only one result on Google for my question. Thanks for being an amazing team member!!!

 

I'm having an issue with my Interface. I tried connecting to a new wireless AP with the interface plugged into the blackbox and the LEAD 1010 via power supply and now I'm stuck in a bootloop that occurs when it tries connecting to wifi. How would I resolve this?

 

I have searched this post, has a solution been found for error 15. Im getting the same issue new interface, firmware at 1.47, on Bobs cnc, will home when try to move axis error. also is there a way to change the increments like on desktop?

 

Thank you. i did home but I will try again. Soft limits off and working.

 

Hey all, I just got around to trying to use my LEAD 1010 again. None of the flash drives I used work anymore! FAT32 formatted, with the config files direct from CONTROL. Latest firmware on the Interface. I even have two interfaces, neither of them recognize the USB flash drives. Very odd...

 

When using INTERFACE with GRBL Laser setting "On"... is there a way to increase the 2% power setting when firing the laser via the INTERFACE?

Thanks
Rich.

 

Thank you. Turns out I couldn't get it to fire because of $30, $31 GRBL settings not because of the 2%.

Thanks again.
Rich.

 

Here is an update from my past several post on the USB issue not being read by the interface. It took 4 replacements to get one that worked. Support was great and they are looking into the issued for this product. If you are having issues please contact them as you may need a replacement. Thanks for openbuilds support.
