Inverted Z and Y axis!
-
Hello, I have a problem with inverted Y and Z axis. I try to use Universal G-code sender(1.0.9), grblControl (0.8) and Candle(0.9). Command $2=0..7 - doesn't work, it recieve OK, I see changes in list after command $$ - but no effect for motors. Please help.
-
Oh! I've found solution. Use command $3=6 - and all is OK
-
dont you mean $2=6.... $3=6 shouldnt work since it needs to be set at 1 or 2.
-
$3 is the correct one for inverting direction $2 is for different type of stepper driver that needs low to high or high to low transition.

good evening
I have eleaksmill i am trying to use candles,
think i also have the z inverted problem.
Which commands I have to type and where.
I'm totally a beginner
-
I don't have any experience with candles, but I've been using Universal G-Code Sender, the UGSPlatform version, which is in the bin folder. I too had the reversed Z-axis issue as well, which I typed into the command line $3=4. You can find the list of commands by simply googling for GRBL and there's a table that breaks it down. Looks something like this.
Setting Value Mask Invert X Invert Y Invert Z
0 00000000 N N N
1 00000001 Y N N
2 00000010 N Y N
3 00000011 Y Y N
4 00000100 N N Y
5 00000101 Y N Y
6 00000110 N Y Y
7 00000111 Y Y Y

Oh I see where I went wrong. I am so used to using grbl 1.1 I forgot that eleksmaker's standard is .9 Thanks for the link @cesnyderces
-
That's ok, I've upgraded mine to 1.1 as well, but the command table is the same.
-
haha yeah I just checked the link I posted. It does say the same. maybe I was drunk when I was posting. Luckily you guys got it figured out anyway!

Yah, I'd be happy to, I have something similar planned, can easily include that as well.
