Connect it to the machine - the settings tab should then show up. As Peter says, the machine settings should already be there.
Does the new computer show it when connected to the machine?
I think it only shows up when you're computer is connected to the controller
@Alain JBT - just to be clear: set $6 = 1 and everything should work OK. My apologies for missing this initially
Do you mean 1, @Peter Van Der Walt ? I did check above and it is 0 ( which I would expect, coming from arduino based controllers) is the BB...
Try machine off first. (Also try with spindle unplugged from VFD)
Yes, sorry - I did edit my original post to say that I didn't think that the limit switches (in the photo) were a problem. If nothing else has...
Hi - not a direct answer to your question, sorry, but I believe the problem is caused by something shorting the DC ground from the Black Box to...
That's interesting, thank you. I've been avoiding FluidNC as I had issues trying to run it with with Control. As I preferred using Control, I've...
Hi, When you say Do you mean it moved 37mm when it should have moved 200mm? What value of $102 gave you that? Alternatively: What pitch is...
I don't think you are missing anything. The information isn't relevant unless one is trying to design a machine from scratch.
I've got 1204 ball screws with 2Nm Nema23 steppers running on 36V on my small (metal cutting) CNC, and its top speed is about 3000mm/min, or ~120...
I'm reasonably familiar with Inkscape, however I've never used it to generate GCode (I presume you're using the 'gcodetools' extension?) From...
OpenBuilds Control requires a GCode file, the same as UGS. (If you're starting from a drawing, you will need some sort of CAM software to...
Hi, the tool will always be on the Z axis (by convention). There was a time when the axis colours on UGS were different to the convention of red...
Yeah, that may well be the case - I'm not trying to say otherwise, just trying to eliminate other potential sources and we'll see what's left :)...
As @Giarc says, you need to account for tool deflection to achieve the levels of accuracy you are seeking. This means addressing the machining...
It says it is a gcode file, so should open in Control. However, the message says that the file has been blocked (presumably by some anti-malware)...
Watch the video at 2 seconds, 36 seconds and 45 seconds - you can hear the Z axis stepper accelerate as the head moves up, but the head stops...
It **looks** like you have something binding near the top of the Z axis and/or are possibly trying to exceed the available Z travel of the machine...
