Kardeşim merhaba, kanalını beğenerek izliyorum. Sayende Endüktif sensörü limit switch olarak kullanabildim, benim şöyle bir sorum olacak kendi çapımda ufak bi makina yapmaya çalışıyorum router mantığıyla. Misal motorları 0(home ) pozisyonuna gönderdikten sonra motor sürekli artı yönde dönecek fakat limit switch tetiklense bile görmeyecek bir mach3 ayarı varmı?

The Asian side is mostly NPN type. The proximity sensor feels short in sensing. I'm curious about the acceleration and deceleration peton.

@GBWM_CNC 2 жыл бұрын

I've just used 2 type CNC controllers - this one and a CNC BOB based on LPT port - actually both seem to use NPN as you state. Btw what do you mean by acceleration and deceleration peton?

Hi. I have just purchased this board and will be using a 3d touch probe. The probe has 3 wires, 24v+, 24v- and a signal wire to the pin 4 (I think). The way I see it is that the probe is NO and the signal wire when activated will send a 24v+ signal to pin 4 (active low NOT ticked) activating the board. Would I be right in this understanding? Much appreciated.

Very good, I have a problem that I have found in Mach 3, I have the STB4100 controller with the TB6600 drivers and 4 nema 23 motors, the problem is that I get a warning (G100) when trying to set the soft limit, it drives me crazy and I don't know what to do anymore, it's been 2 months now and I haven't been able to solve it, I would really appreciate it if you could help me. If you need any more information to help me, do not hesitate to ask. Thank you for your time, greetings.

Sir, How much would you suggest the RNR USB Card for a Woodworker CNC Router? Have you run any Longer carving Projects using the RnR USB card? Have you faced any unexpected interruptions or missed steps? So many videos say that It shouldn't be trusted for longer projects?

@GBWM_CNC 7 ай бұрын

Yes, these RNR boards tend to have electrical noise problems sometimes if you don't do everything perfect. I had to isolate the power supply of my laptop to make it work (even emi filters and shielded cables didn't help me). Usually there were no problems with jobs at about 15-30min of work. I didn't do longer ones. Usually if there was a problem the machine missed some steps and stopped (the controller somehow saw that something goes wrong). If you want to be sure for your connection - look for an ethernet port cnc controller like axbb-e or mesa (if you want linuxcnc).

@user-oq9ml8jb1t 7 ай бұрын

In India , dont have access to such Ethernet Controllers. Or they would be insanely expensive if I source from abroad due to the Taxation and import laws here. China is almost in red Category. So No Aliexpress either..! @@GBWM_CNC

Are you sure you can do it with this controller? I've tried and there was no option to make it work. The manual states it needs to be NPN. How did you make it work as PNP?

Connecting it to IN1 in your hand drawing diagram? I'm pretty sure IN1 is the main Emergency Stop switch? IN2 and IN3 is for limit/home switches and IN4 is for probe.

@GBWM_CNC Жыл бұрын

Actually it doesn't matter which input you choose. You can setup all the inputs as you wish in MACH3 :) so the for example the probe can be connected to in1, in2, in3 or in4 as long as you set it in the software.

@@DogSerious From what I remember - the RNR plugin makes MACH3 show board pin numbers instead of port pins as this board doesn't use parallel port at all. But I don't want to misslead anyone now - I'm not able to check it as I don't have now access to this controller.

Excuse me and to connect the 6 sensors, how would it be?

@GBWM_CNC Жыл бұрын

what kind of sensors do you have? With 2 wire sensors this will be probably not possible to do. With NPN you should be able to connect the output of the first one with the (-) input of the second one and so on wiring them in series. This should work I think but I didn't test it by myself. But NPN - only in NC configuration

Mam problem z podłączeniem kilku czujników NPN NC (ten sam model co na filmiku, 3 żyły). Czy jest możliwość podłączenia kilku czujników do wspólnego gniazda np. IN1 ? Jeżeli istnieje taka możliwość proszę o schemat, bo próbowałem już chyba na wszystkie możliwe sposoby, stosowałem diody i nic. Podłączenie dwóch czujników do wspólnego gniazda sprawia, że pojedynczo czujniki nie działają ( jeden zasila drugi?) natomiast kiedy zbliżę do metalu oba na raz to czujniki działają.

"+" podłączony na stałe do obu czujników, "-" podłączony na stałe do pierwszego czujnika i potem wyjście z pierwszego będzie podłączone z "-" zasilania kolejnego a wyjście z kolejnego do płytki sterującej. Na logikę powinno działać w taki sposób.

Seriously, how hard is it to just explain what's going on while you are shooting the video? If you are afraid to have your voice heard then why are you recording and publishing videos.
