Hi I'm struggling with getting machine and work area to aligne in Openbuild or software and X32 controller. Machine and work area is way off each other. I can't line them up, so they kind of follow in the same area. It's like a mirror of each other. I want 0 to be 0, ind the far left corner , where til limit switches is. I've tried to play with invert stepper and homering pins, but that did nok help. Also i won't show when i zeroed all. I did not assemble the machine, so I'm thinking of going all cables though. Does Someone have a clue?
The industry standard is far right corner which is why it is mirrored. You need to change the grbl settings to what your machine does then save the settings. Grbl v1.1 Configuration Open builds control has made the reconfiguration process easy.
1) Make sure machine jogs correctly (Same as arrows on buttons) (If not correct in $3 Direction Invert - remember to Save and Reset) 2) Then use $23 to tell grbl "where are the switches" (Homing Dir = not a way to change move directions, its "where are the switches" and assumed $3 Direction Invert is correct in (1) above) 3) Then enable Homing. HOME to set the Work Coordinates (Cube shows machine work area) 4) Move to stock origin and do SetZero (Grid shows work coordinates not machine bed and moves relative to the gcode loaded and where its origin lies - you can after all origin on top front left or stock, or center, or on the bed, or back corner, its a moving target - 0,0,0 is where you set zero for the Job ) In your screenshot it looks move like you forgot to Home
Hi Peter No, it was homed on the picture, thats the problem. I'll try to do what you said, then I'll be back.
