    Z probe settings

    Hi all, I'm having a nightmare setting up mach 3 Auto tool zero. I had a hard drive failure but managed to save the mach 3 folder. I have now reinstalled this to my new drive but when the probe makes contact with the plate, it thinks it's a limit switch and e stops the machine. Have been trying different settings but no joy. Any help appreciated

    It is clear that one of the limit switches is not configured correctly. Check the recommendations found here:
