The other yellow wire is also in the ground pin.

Sorry for my delay, busy also. My psu comes tomorrow. Heres a pic showing my current wiring, notice the jumper going to the second ground rather than the first like yours.

So 1 other thing, like yours i too have a jumper between "p" and "g", but my jumper goes from p down to the second g. Shouldnt matter right?

Jason, thanks for the help. I think ill be buying the 40w-60w psu from lightobject. Just to be ready for the new tube upgrade when mine dies. Which psu did you buy?

Hey, i have a dead psu in my machine that has the same old psu yours had. When upgrading to a psu with 3 pins vs 4 pins, where did you place the wire that was connected to the L- pin on the 4 pin...

So my machine (x6-2200l) I have converted to imperial. The converted motor tuning is about 70 ipm for velocity. Much to slow for my liking. I've had success with velocity set to 200 in both x and...

How about those small bearings at the ends of each axis that the ballscrew goes into, right before the motor coupler. I think the pocket that holds the bearing on my z axis is loose/sloppy because I...

oh ya for sure, i have yet to do that.

m1n1m, theres a good chance that it wasnt the material that had a flatness issue. Its very likely that your machine bed isnt perfectly flat/level across the whole surface. I have an mdf spoilboard...

some of my jobs run 4 hours or longer, and the motors were getting too hot to touch, so now with the heatsinks and fans, they stay cool to the touch no matter how long i run it. and the plexiglass...

Ill snap some photos soon as I get a chance and post them up! My dustshoe is a rectangle shape so rather than bend the brush strip, I cut it into 4 pieces and gpoued them to each edge.

Ya stig, that plugin config is important if you start messing with axis direction etc, otherwise you could end up hitting the home switch and have it try to keep moving past the switches instead of...

Actually yes I've made a nice dustshoe! Using a combo of mdf, plexiglass and 6 neodymium magnets and the brush material from McMaster Carr. Actually made it right on the machine too! How nice! And...

Hey stig you can change directions on axis. Change the direction in your step/dir area but also be sure to change the numbers in your homing / limits area and also go into the config for the...

Dang. Well its not interupting the operation of the machine so I guess it's not an issue yet!

My machine runs great now but I have a slight "bent" issue as well but not quite like your issue. When you view my machine from a lower point of view you can see that one leg is up off the table by...

With my shipment I was told by grace that they ship to a shipping center in hong Kong first which adds a few days to the shipment before it even leaves via dhl.

Grimm I purchased the 110v (I'm in new York) and its on a 20A circuit in my basement and runs fine along side several shop lights, the water pump, a few fans, a shop vac, all on one circuit with no...

So I worked out my problems with communication issues being related to me minimizing in and out of mach 3 while loading and unloading programs via a thumb drive. Haven't had any issues since.

I just ran into an odd issue that for now my way of fixing is to just restart mach3. What's I'm seeing happen is strange, I'm losing control of y axis and z axis via programming but can still jog...

Your default steps per on motor tuning for metric should be at 320. And like my friend here stated, should be no need to change any settings really. Your home switches should already be set, just...

Got my power supply yesterday. I'm all wired up and its running successfully! Big vouch for omio's response time on customer service / warranty coverage!

Not to mention they have always answered...

I second what dharmic said. I couldn't believe how quite the spindle was. And I can vouch for omiocnc's customer service. For being overseas they are prompt about answering emails within 24hours...
