hehe, Gcode is just "LOGO with consequences".
just tried various settings. if you have homing enabled soft limits disabled then you can jog (or command) moves to anywhere, including...
no, you cannot change the MCS, it is set by poweron/reset/$H command, that is all. everything else is an offset and does not affect the MCS 0,0,0...
install the drivers turn off power saving
once you have used 'setzero' the blackbox remembers the offsets, even through power down. Therefore you do not need to set the offsets after every...
I would - lower the homing speed - create a parking macro that sends it to 1/4" short of the home switches and use it EVERYTIME before power off....
bCNC already supports othographic, and will work with a Blackbox perfectly. also open source and multiplatform
first disconnect the PSU ground from the arduino and from the step/dir - pins. (power ground is not signal ground!) connect the pulse/dir - pins...
$H all the commands it supports are at Grbl v1.1 Commands ยท gnea/grbl Wiki but CONTROL takes care of the details most of the time, as would any GUI.
sounds like backlash to me, nothing wrong with the Gcode so if the machine is not moving smoothly is is probably a mechanical problem.
oh, just noticed you mention G28 for homing. What controller are you using? Standard GRBL in the Blackbox does not use G28 for homing, G28 is...
reading this G Codes tells us that G92.1 will remove the G92 offsets, leaving you with just plain WCS positions, and of course, MCS, Machine...
and if you are working in a vice it is common to set Y zero on the front of the fixed jaw, which is usually the back of the material.
i can imagine (-: no, please buy a kit from the store, then follow the instructions. As your first build you will be learning a lot, save the...
You can generate Gcode directly from Sketchup Make with the SketchUcam plugin [MEDIA]
you can use a macro to park it near home, say G21 G53 G0 X-10 y-10 z-10 then it only has to move 10mm to home when you start up again. saves a...
There are a couple of post processors that claim to output dxf for certain models of laser/plasma cutters. This may be a way to 'export' dxf (-:
always home, the machine needs a proper sense of self, and home is where the heart is (-:
Homing sorts this for you. Homing sets the machine home, everything else is an offset from machine home, so if home is correct and consistent,...
It is really for plasma cutters which have Z motion. With it off, the nozzle will lift after every cut before moving to the next cut, then has to...
