We're retrofitting a Mazak to allow us to run it on Mach3. Currently we;re wiring and testing under the Kmotion software.
In order to access the tool changer, we need to be able to drive the Y axis to the end stop, stop the apindle etc, then continue to drive through the end stop to the tool changer, which is controlled by a secondary prox switch.
The options in Kmotion dont seem to readily allow this, are you able to suggest a path we can follow?
Thanks

Hi Craig,
Not sure I understand what you need to do. But it sounds like you would need to disable the Y limit, then Jog until the Prox switch is detected and stop. You would need to write a few lines of C code to do this.
