G31 Probe SOMETIMES works (Mach3 USB) (SOLVED)
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2018 8:43 am
Hi , I apologize for my poor english first. Here's my situation.
I'm using autoleveller on Mach3 (Chinese USB board, nMotion) and running into a G31 problem.
G31 command works well on other tasks when I need to set WCS on milling.
However, when I used the GCode generated by autoleveller 0.77, G31 SOMETIMES works while sometimes just staying there, doing nothing and going straight to next line.
GCode and Working situation as below
.
.
G31 Z-1 F50.................SOMETIMES Worked
#500=#2002...........Worked
G0 Z2............................Worked
G0 X5.21389 Y0........Worked
G31 Z-1 F50................SOMETIMES Worked
#501=#2002............Worked
G0 Z2............................Worked
G0 X10.42779 Y0.....Worked
G31 Z-1 F50................SOMETIMES Worked
#502=#2002..........Worked
G0 Z2............................Worked
G0 X15.64168 Y0......Worked
G31 Z-1 F50.................SOMETIMES Worked
#503=#2002............Worked
.
.
The ratio (G31 Worked)/(All G31) is about 0.66, seemingly no obvious pattern there, just random.
Also, in "step by step" mode(ALT + N), all the G31 work CORRECTLY all the time.
Does anyone get some clue?
thanks!
