Z axis and A axis moving at the same time.

Hello everyone,

I am a new LinuxCNC user that's running on a just recently inherited a Tieg CNC mini mill..

I have been having issues getting the A axis to move separately from the Z-axis while jogging on the computer or the remote. Whenever I home all the Z-axis the A-axis moves as well. However, when I select the A-Axis on the remote/jog the values change but the A-axis doesn't actually move.

I'm not sure if this has something my personal understanding, INI file, or possibly a wiring issue. Any direction would be helpful! Thanks!

It could be a hal or a hardware issue,

Posting the hal/ini files would remove a lot of guesswork

That sounds like you have the Z and A axis motors wired to the same output and no motor connected to the A axis.
As PCW mentioned above that can be in HAL or physically wired incorrectly .

I'll upload it shortly!

I believe these are the files.

To move the a-axis delete # sign's :

net astep => parport.0.pin-08-out
setp parport.0.pin-08-out-reset 1
net adir => parport.0.pin-09-out
setp parport.0.pin-09-out-invert 1

For probe, use pin 15.
Connect E-stop.
Tune values like : setp parport.0.reset-time 2500

Maybe take your time to do a step config wizard setup.
