Limit Sensor
Posted: Thu Jun 30, 2016 11:30 pm
I have recently upgraded to the X7 from a Leetro 6525 and am having a rough time figuring out the limit sensors. I have been looking through other posts regarding it but cant quite figure it out.
I have swapped wires around but nothing seems to work. I did find that I needed to connect 24v power from the PSU and that at least turned the limit light on when it gets to the end but it doesn't stop. The wierd problem I noticed is that when I was messing with the X axis it at one point made the Y axis limit work. I am at a loss at this point and would appreciate any help I can get.
Here is the sensor I have I have also been having trouble with machine knowing where zero is and actual distance traveled (the current location is never where it says it is) I am assuming that is caused by not having proper limit sensor?
I do have the UM set correctly and scaling is spot on.
So far the upgrade to the X7 is far better than what I had and LaserCad is far better to deal with than LaserCut. Highly recommend it to anyone who has anything less.
This is the last thing that I have to figure out and again any help would be greatly appreciated.
