Greetings all; I went out in my half blind condition, found a bar of cold roll to make a different x-home switch activator for the g0704. Fired up LCNC which came up normal, but was not moveable for homing or by jogging without an instant following error. Putting a halmeter on the joint error, it was reported to be in the #-16 to #-18 range. Danged close IOW.
My following error setting have been min=0.0005 and ferror 0.001 for many months. Without any problems. Tonight I find I can't jog at above .05 ipm without resetting them to min= at least .0025", and ferror at least .005", or nominally 5 times the working errors of around a month ago when I was making all those tap hats. Once the error settings exceed the backlash, it will move at close to 100 ipm in either direction of any axis. So it seems related to BACKLASH, which worst cases are GO704fast.ini:BACKLASH = 0.00190 (x) GO704fast.ini:BACKLASH = 0.000950(y) GO704fast.ini:BACKLASH = 0.00320 (z) Has anything been changed in that area of the code recently? Thanks everybody for clues to check next. -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
