Re: 6-axis how can i get them working?


Tero,
Joint mode can be selected in the pulldown-menu. default is axis-mode, i think. I dont have the gui in front of me, but I think so. You can also choose joint mode with shift-$, i think.
Referencing must be done in joint mode, before transformed motion is possible. so if you choose transformed motion right away, the Machine might try to start referencing. at least thats how i interpret it.

 Hallo Tero!
i also used steppermod.o and it worked. I dont know why you cannot home your axes. is it because you are not in joint mode? You should be in joint mode! I do not understand your mdi command. Did you expect to move one single joint untransformed with it? I usually test the axes by jogging in manual mode with the switch. This is possible before having homed, i think. It ist important to set the homeswitch polarity the right way. Be aware that there is only one homeswitch for all axes that always needs to be released after an axis homed.

If i select some other axis than 0 and try to move it manually only axis0 moves.

Axis0 is also only acis that can be homed. How do i set it up for joint mode?
