Z axis stalling when jogging from pendant

Hi guys,

I'm having an issue with my bench lathe that I've converted to cnc.
On the Z axis, when I jog from the keyboard, it does fine in the whole range of speeds, the max speed is 1500mm/min.
When I jog it from the pendant, with the highest x100 set on the pendant, the motor stalls.
I thought is a driver issue, a setting issue or smth...but I've switched the cables with the X axis, and the X motor goes fine, and the Z stalls again. The half nut is not engaged, so its just the screw itself.
If anyone can give me some hints I would be grateful!

Thanks,
Vasi

Hi Andy,

I had ilowpass filter but I had wrong values for gain and scale. I've played a bit with the values and now it does exactly what I expect, it also has acceleration/deceleration. Thanks!

Also I would have another question!
My pendant is for 4 axis and since I'm using a lathe I only use 2 axis. Can I wire one of the other axis inputs so that I can increase/decrease feed override using the MPG wheel?
If so, can you give me some instructions or redirect me to some resources? I'm using Mesa 7i76e.
Thanks!

Hi Andy,

I did managed to make the feed override slider move when I jog the weel. Unfortunately due to ilowpass.scale, on one mpg pulse it goes from 0 to 200.
I would like to increase by 1% on each pulse. What setting do I need for this?
I'm attaching the .hal file so that you can understand better the settings I have.

Thanks

For the x and z axis, the increments are fine, they move as they should. I don't know where to specify the increments for the feed rate. If you can have a look over the file, perhaps you can figure it out.
Thanks man!

It works!
Thanks for being so responsive.
Right now at each pulse it increments by 10%, is there a simple way to increase it just by 1%?
This way the jog wheel would not be so sensitive
Thanks again!
