Re-did my wiring setup and now my y axis won't reverse. I have tried everything I know but still doesn't work. Marked all my wire positions before new setup. Using a Lanyee controller with a DM860...

Have done my research I know that $32=1 turns laser mode on and 0 turns it off. Have PWM connected to TTL output, but laser still does not turn on and off as it should, could I possibly have a...

Thanks soooooooooo much for your help.

How would I do that, thanx

This is how I have it hooked up. Shouldn't the input marked laser control, control the laser pulse?https://www.cnczone.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=412640&stc=1

Installed a 15 watt laser on my engraver. Laser works fine in stand-alone mode but cannot control pulse on\off with my controller. I assume the TTL plug-in is what
controls the pulse? Using a...

Added 15 watt laser to my cnc engraver, using Keyestudio controller. Laser works perfectly in stand alone mode. However I can't get the board to control the laser. Laser controller requires 12v,...

Tried this, no luck, have never had a problem with this before, e-stop, hold and resume all working fine, just can't figure this one out. Brand new controller, but may be defective?

Thanx, I'll try it

Had to switch controllers and install new endstops but can't figure out how to wire them. Posting pics of the controller and end stops, maybe someone has used
these and can tell me what I'm doing...

Thanks, I have resolved the problem gcode settings, apparently there was no exact setting on my controllers, so I had to do it with the $111=n setting until I achieved the desired result, thanks...

Thanx to all! Your help let me resolve this problem!

Thanx! Using grbl 3.6.1, don't see where to do that?

For some reason I can't get my y axis resolution set to correspond with grbl steps. Using 8030 stepper drivers and nema 34 motors, motor manual says to use at
1/8 steps, but when I jog at 100 steps...

I understand the arc segment principal, just wondered if there is a program to optimize the arcs for faster cutting, thanx

I am using Artcam and ABviewer to generate my files that I produce in Coreldraw, thanx.

Z axis works fine with manual control on keyboard and if I send a typed command in GRBL controller, does not respond to commands generated with artcam or abviewer? Just can't figure it out!

Is there any program to optimize cutting curves in gcode, thereby speeding up the cutting process?

Using GRBL controller, everything works right when I send my files except the z axis, it simply does not respond, Manual commands work perfectly as well the axis controls by
keyboard. I am attaching...

You're right, never dawned on me the leadscrews might be different as I ordered them all from the same vendor, thanx!

Thanks for the reply, I'll check that out!

:mad:DIY engraver, running Artcam. When I send a perfect circle to engraver it gives me an oblong cut. This happens with every object I send to engraver. Somehow the output never duplicates the...

Have a diy engraver, using nema 34 motors and cw8060 drivers, machine responds fine, but I have a problem with the output. If I send a perfect circle, it cuts an oblong. Does the same with every...

Thanx! will try it today.

Still no luck with this arrangement, attached pic shows my wiringhttps://www.cnczone.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=398254&stc=1

Can anyone explain what is connected to the 4 pins marked " INPUT"?https://www.cnczone.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=398016&stc=1

No luck, just can't see what I am missing. Posting pics of my wiring, thanx for all your time and trouble!https://www.cnczone.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=397736&stc=1

Where does the driver get it's 5v power from, the controller board, or do I need a separate 5v power supply, thanx!

Thanx!! I did have the other board, but swapped it on someone's advice, can't remember who. Where does the driver get the 5v power from, the controller, or do I need a separate 5v power supply?
