B Axis Rotation over 360?

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

Hey all,

 

Been a long time since I have been on here! O_o

 

Downloaded the X4 MPMaster yesterday and started doing some tuning on it. A standard horizontal program we run around 5 or 6 different WCS's (all user created). NEVER before have we had an issue with it posting above 360° but this post does. I have a B360. (= B0), B450. (= B90) and B540 (= B180).

 

Not sure why this is, but wondering if there is a setting where I can limit it to post only up to 359° and then reset back to 0?

 

Tks

Im looking at the same issue, but the machine may be ok with the code as is.

If not ill wait for gcode to answer it for you

/Ignore. Found it in another thread (as always, right after I post this.../sigh)

Some controls like the OKK I am programming now see's the B350 then gos minus 10 deg for example. is your not liking it or is moving say 350 to get to B10?

[Randy Morton @ Clem Industrial]

I got it all fixed up now Jay, but it was looking at it as if B370 was B10. Sadly the control (although a Fanuc) will not recognize this. And it will confuse the crap outta the operator...which might be kinda funny.

one_rev     : 1     #Limit rotary indexing between 0 and 360? (0 = No, 1 = Yes)

 

Thought I would just throw this in so all can see how, at least for me, the problem was resolved.

Near the beginning of the post, in the General Output Settings, look for the variable "one_rev" and set that to "1". This will keep the B-axis between 0 and 360.
