Motor timing help was created by nicklego
Hi, I'm very new to CNC, and I have a Maxnc15CL from around the year 2000 and am using a Raspberry Pi 5 to communicate with it using LinuxCNC. The Pi 5 has a parallel port hat from Byte 2 Bot, and I'm able to control the spindle, detect the limit switches, enable the motor encoder feedback loop, and make the motors make noise when I tell the axis to move. I suspect that the motor timing is off, but im not too sure if when I change the values, if it's getting closer or further away from actually moving. If anyone has any ideas on how to make this work, I would greatly appreciate it, and im leaving my hal file and .ini file below. Thank you
