    So I spent my lunch time out in the shop and I did the upgrade first. followed by a complete wipe. I entered all of the parameters via Secure-CRT. After that I did some jog tests. CHECK. Then I did a Home Y. Crap.. Wrong direction. So I swapped the polarity again on the motors. Home Y… Oooh.. right direction this time. But it stopped halfway over. I figure that must be the max travel. No biggie. I jogged it closer and did a Home Y. SUCCESS. So something amongst all of that fixed the issue. Either the wipe, the upgrade or the fact I am no longer using the CP config.

    I have 25 years of programming experience and integrated electronics experience so if there are any ideas for widgets or whatnot I would be willing to take a shot at it. Along with my full time gig doing Unix/Linux Security.. Fun times.. Thanks for the help.

    Thank you for all of the tips. Ill do as such and let you know the outcome. Hopefully this will resolve those issues.

    Oh thats interesting.. I had 10,000 in those but I had entered them via the CP Configuration tool. It seems to be making a lot of mistakes lately. I forked it off and started looking at fixing them and added some tabs for other settings. If I get it done I’d be happy to share.

    I am using the Home connand in CP under the Axes widget under the Y Axis.

    I was using CP’s config but I switched over to the serial console in CP. Sometimes coolterm if I have few changes. When I use the arrows under the Axis widget to move X Y and Z they move fine, well except for Y. Y always wants to go the same directions for Y+/Y- even though I change the polarity in firmware expecting them to go the other way, A very strange issue.

    Thanks for the tips on Z. I have even’t paid any attention to that until I get the Y issue sorted out. Should I try an older FW or newer one? I see there are some newer ones..

    Here is my current configuration. This is a new OX that I am working on. Other than the odd homing issue it seems to be working well. Although I’ve only manually moved the axis from the gui. Soon Ill test a cut.

    Hi

    When the machine is facing me with the spindle closer to me than the gantry I consider that the front. Yes with the polarity settings for the motors swapped it still homes the same direction, towards the back. It is a dual gantry setup. I believe its on the latest FW. I can check all of this when I get home shortl .
