Re: Kflop Digital IO for Relays
Thanks for the response Tom. Kind of a junk show over here but figured it's easier to post than not, maybe someone else will encounter similar and with any luck my situation will improve. Regarding the separate 3.3v supply, I will try to explain. Initially I had all of the limit switches pull 3.3V f...

Re: Kflop Digital IO for Relays
Ok so relay issues is resolved with a separate 3.3V supply. I have not had to do this for past kflop projects but seemed to be the logical solution and does work. As for the read failure and disconnect issue. That is still not solved, but I have eliminated the Kflop because I swapped it out for a di...

Re: Kflop Digital IO for Relays
I thought I had it sorted out, got the relay to work again by reducing the outputs from the kflop 3.3v source... But now I continually get 'Read Error, no Motion Devices connected' everytime the relay triggers and the plasma torch turns on... Everything was working great, then the voltage dropped to...

Kflop Digital IO for Relays
I have a kflop+kstep system that has been working pretty good the last few months, but recently the digital IO stopped triggering some of the relays I have. I checked the code and tried swapping out relays, but the issue persisted. Eventually I found the culprit: the relays operate on a 3V signal, b...

Re: Set G28 and G30
OK understand - good point on the MCodes - I keep forgetting there are so many available to assign.

Re: Multiple KMotionCNC Machine Configurations
that worked!
Thank you! I personally would never have figured that out.

Re: Set G28 and G30
So I have noticed playing around with these that they are dependent on the units being used... i.e. if I put G30 at 1,1,1 and am using in units it will go to 1",1",1" but if I am using mm units it will go to 1mm,1mm,1mm... Can I specify this somehow to be either in units or motor counts or something...

Re: Multiple KMotionCNC Machine Configurations
So I'm not positive why the installation went to that folder - I unistalled/reinstalled when I had issues trying this the first time and the reinstallation defaulted to that folder I had created. Everything worked fine so I decided not to mess with it. The errors that I am getting now are the same o...

Re: Multiple KMotionCNC Machine Configurations
So I think part of my confusion is that the directions listed here (https://www.dynomotion.com/Help/KMotionCNC/MultipleConfigurations.htm) do not say to create a shortcut for KMotionCNC, instead it says (in bold) to create a shortcut for KMotion.exe. When I do this for KMotion.exe, at least the crea...
