The configuration info is in the link below - remember that the settings in the Xpro v5 are entered as rms current values - not peak current...
Which Arduino pin are you using for the Z limit switch? With grbl 1.1 it should be pin 12 on the Arduino. Alex.
Couldn't tell from the Dewalt site whether the screw thread on the body for height adjustment went all the way down (they only show it in it's...
@Peter Van Der Walt is the person to answer that one. Alex.
$27 - pull off distance - set it to 5, not 200. Alex.
Wiring for the switch and $5 setting is correct for a NC switch. I'm a bit rusty with the Arduino, but I thought for grbl 1.1f (you didn't mention...
The obvious question (sorry if you have already covered this) - how have you wired your homing switch? You have set $5=1 does the homing switch...
This guide will help you to identify each pair of wires on your steppers - the wiring colour coding is not standardised (our steppers do match the...
Sorry, not familiar with CamBam. My initial reading of your post made me think you were creating the g-code manually (line by line) so apologies...
Yes, there are much more efficient ways of doing it using cad/cam software to create the g-code for you. What is your control set up? -...
You can't "put it into G53" unless you put G53 at the beginning of the line - G53 is non-modal - it only applies to the line it is on. You can't...
No, stick to absolute moves. G10 L20 will set current wcs zero at the current location. G1 (or any movements) can only reference the MACHINE...
As far as I know what gets imported into Fusion depends on whether the dwg file is 3d or 2d. 2d gets imported as sketches, 3d will be imported as...
What cad/cam software and controller/control software are you using? Alex.
If you have a grbl controller use this post processor docs:software:fusion360 [OpenBuilds Documentation] As the name suggests, the post processor...
I've come across a few people who advocate packing dust into a slot with a downcut bit to avoid having to use tabs. Please don't- in addition to...
Speeds and feeds Tip - use the Forum > Search Forums menu to search the forum. Alex.
Only a suggestion - I cut a fair bit of polystyrene sheet but that's the limit of my experience with plastics. Lowest spindle speed you can...
In addition to the link @Peter Van Der Walt gave, your cable from the vfd to the spindle is very close to the cables to the blackbox. Physical...
I second @Peter Van Der Walt 's suggestion to replace the leadscrews with better quality ones - some of the 32 bit controllers can calibrate...
