AutoLevellerAE and UCCNC

Hello,

Has anyone gotten AutolevelerAE to work correctly with UCCNC?

I've edited the custom cnc controller, but after the probing routing the spindle just hangs at Z 10 all the time.

Greetings,
Emile

Re: Autoleveller AE 0.8.5

Just a picture of the finest details I just got. In person it looks better than on the picture. I'ts on the limit of the spindle runout and tool runout, I had to use some fine sandpaper to clean some of the rough edges. 2017-08-03 23.27.50(1)-large.jpg Settings: 100mm/min (running slow, kept breakin...

Re: Autoleveller AE 0.8.5

Hello James,

I just tried the custom controller option in the new version.

It worked great! I used the below settings, and that worked correctly on my XHC MACH3 IV USB controller. (CNC3020USB/CNC6040USB)

Thanks!

Greetings,

Emile

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

Hello, I've had good results with contacting the guy that wrote the firmware in the past. ( Chao from XHC ) A few years back I had a problem with pecked drilling, and a few days later I got a fixed firmware from him. The only problem is that they have moved on to a newer controller ( IV vs V ) and t...

Re: Eagle, pcb to g-code, Mach3 and Autoleveler

AKG, If you're 6040Z S80 1,5 kW uses the NcUsbPod.dll driver, which I think it does. Then maybe my post ''Aircuts on Mach3 USB NcUsbPod" provides a work around for some of the problems. (my usb controller box is from a 6040Z) I had some of the same problems, and I found out that if you don't close m...

Re: Aircuts on Mach3

I've made some progress and cut my first pcb with AutolevellerAE. Changes in the AL output file: Replace both of the G92 Z0 entries with G52 Z0, with G92 the controller won't move the Z lower than Z0. After each G31 command add call to macro routine M2002. (Got that idea from gskular on cnczone.com,...

Re: Aircuts on Mach3

Hello, My mach3 controller seems to ignore the Z-1 part of the G31 Z-1 F100 probe command, it stops when it reaches Z0 and goes to the next point, only when the level is positive, it triggers the probe correctly. Strange because I use the probe a lot with tool changes and there it functions correctl...

Re: File open history bug

Hello Art,

Yes that also works as a work around. I fixed it by recreating the directory I just deleted.

Thanks,

Emile

Aircuts on Mach3 USB NcUsbPod

Hello, I'm currently having problems with aircuts (Z 280mm) with AutolevellerAE v0.8.4 where Autoleveller 0.7.7 works without a problem with the same setup. I've generated a probe set: -549.96875,-337.49063,180.48438 -549.96875,-337.49063,180.48438 -549.96875,-337.49063,180.48438 -549.96875,-337.490...
