This is very informative! The code is written so that when the switch is detected the first time it sets the position. Even though this isn't the final position, it is close, and by setting the position at that point, the screw error compensation (if used) will be reading the right part of the curve. Then when it hits the index pulse, its supposed to set the position again, this time getting the exact location. That is somehow loading the old position again. I will check the code in that area again. Regards, John Kasunich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
