So I got an emco vmc 100 and although I have been doing this for almost 30 years this one is well a learning curve to say the least SO lets get to it
x axis moves the wrong way +is - and - is +
y axis moves the wrong way +is - and - is +
z axis moves the right way
so I took the drives out flipped the dip switch and x &y homed the wrong way (they home right with the dip switch as per manual )
so I put it back as per the manual and it homes right but the two axis are still reversed so that leads me to believe its in the MSD .....now there is the questions
1. can I just change something in there to make them move the right way
2. what do I change
3. do I have to put the whole MSD back in or can you just change one parameter at a time?
4. how do you back it up to the tape
I know its a lot of questions but I have a small production job to run on this and would appreciate any and all help to sort this out .....I wont even ask how to load it with hyper terminal yet :stickpoke
thanks to any and all that can help me
