Candcnc y axis issue
I'm trying to set My machine up and on the Y axis it's like one motor wants to go one way and the other motor wants to go another way also I can't job using my keyboard I can only jog By clicking in various areas by using my mouse and pointing on the screen in the job section in Mach 3

Re: Candcnc y axis issue
In Mach you have to slave the second motor.... Usually the A.... And in your tuning make sure your steps match on the A and Y axis. I suggest you join the Yahoo group for CandCNC.... You can get some really good information there from Tom himself....

Re: Candcnc y axis issue
Will do. This machine was supposed to be tested first. I noticed the connector that plugs the y axis into blade runner does not go in and secure correctly. The x axis connector goes in there fine but the y axis connector won't fit into any of them. This connector seems to be defective. I took some of the casting off the connector. Plugged it in and both axis work properly. Thanks
