Thanks !
Hold up - changed the cut height to 1mm and I get code. I will proceed from here - thanks for the hint about the 0 pierce height.
Has me completely bamboozled. I've been using a non plasma selection and then manually fixing the gcode, but I'd like to go direct (I have a...
Piercing at 1mmm did not fix. Export attached.
I load a simple .svg, select it, create a new operation, Configure Toolpath for Plasma: Vector (no path offset) (safe height 3mm, feedrate 300,...
As far as I can tell, the switch is not clearing and resetting (no jitter in the switch). It's just that I have to move the Z axis some small...
Thanks Rob, The situation arose when I was testing the limit switches to be sure they worked. Raised the Z axis until the switch activated, axis...
Not the answer I wanted, but OK. Thank you for the reply.
The arm on my limit switch (mechanical) has a little spring to it. It moves onto a ramp near the limit, and as it rolls up the ramp it eventually...
I'll give it a try ! (It's an on off (single speed) device, so speed is meaningless, but if it works, it works.)
An interesting behavior. If I start up the Black Box and connect to it with Open Control, if I launch gcode that has an M3 near the start, the...
Yep, Reading the doc. (There's quite a bit there - so a bit of a slog.) Thank you for your help
Thank you. This is very helpful. Is there a way to manually set the steps per mm ? (as opposed to using the wizard)
Is there a way to log to a file the communication stream to/from the black box ? (Is there a log already?) Also, can I get to the configuration...
Was working fine until I started using the wizard to set the steps per mm (admittedly Z scaling was off) Will work with it again today. Where can...
Aligning the steps for the axes. Using Open Control and a Black box. X and Y went fine. Z - using the wizard a 50 mm move was only 12mm. Entered...
Working out in the hinterland with no connectivity. Is there a way to download all of the BlackBox documentation? (Used my search-fu but did not...
