Chapter 2. Connection
2.1 Device Power supply Solution

The power supply solution in the field of the Industrial automation is always very complicated,
there is a lot of the GND, now we descript the structure of the power supply as below:
The power supply structure as the Figure 2-1,main power supply input and MPG module and
stepper control output module are common GND, Limited and Estop input module and Spindle speed
adjust M3/M8/M1 module are common GND, between main power supply and output module there are
photoelectric isolation. The inputs of limited switch and Estop and so on are Common anode, inside of
the device, there is +12VDC as common+, no need to connect external power supply. Based on the
reference of output GND interface, output a 0-10V adjustable voltage to adjust the spindle
speed,M3/M8/M10 digital output interface is open-GND. If connect an external relay, need to output4
GND to refer to, and give the relay an external power supply.

Chapter 5. Using of software
5.1 Set Machine Coordinate system

Firstly Open the software,as the drawing 5-1 shows,at this time,the software can operate the
machine movements,but before the setting machine coordinate system,there is no connection between
the software and machine.So first step is to set the machine coordinate system.
20
Figure5-1. Main Screen of mach3
1. Set the machine original position switch

As our request,some machine set the original point at the coordinate positive direction,some
machines set the original point at the coordinate negative direction.Mach 3 can search out the machine
original point direction by the software setting.As the pic 5-2 shows,open Homing on the config
menu.Then as pic 5-3 shows.On this page,Home Neg is for searching for the machine orginal point
direction, × means searching original point at negative direction; √ means searching original points at
the positive direction.As the pincture 5-3 shows,X axis’s original position is at the negative direction,Y
and Z’s original points are at the positive direction.

Figure5-2. Click homing of Config

21
Figure5-3. Motor Home and Softlimits dialog

2. Set soft limits
As Figure 5-3 shows,this page also can set machine soft limit points,Soft Max is positive direction
soft limited points,soft Min is negative direction soft limited points.The soft limited points values is
according the references to the machine coordinate system,so as this example shows,Y and Z axis’s max
value is 0,all the effective coordinate data is less than 0.As the Figure shows,according to our current
request,we set our XYZ axis soft limited points area as [0,270] [-390,0] [-100,0].
3. Searching for machine original points
22
Figure5-4. Click REF ALL HOME to HOME all axis

As Figure 5-4 shows,press REF ALL HOME at main display page,then XYZ A4 start to search for
the original points,if you need more axis’s operation,edit macro command,or press Alt+7 into
Diagnostics display page,you can search original point for every axis. Diagnostics
5.2 Set workpiece coordinate system

Because every working material is hold in different position on the machine,we need to set one or
more workpiece coordinate system.
1. Move to current working piece 0 point
Firstly hold down the material,use keyboard or pendant to move tool tip at the 0 point,so this 0
point is the working piece 0 point,it related with the working G code file,so the user must be very
familiar to his own working G code.As our example shows,the 0 point is on the center of the working

piece surface,so we just move the tool tip to this position.
2. clear Coordinate
As 5-5 shows,press Zero button on each axis, then clear to 0 for each axis.After operation,the
result shows as Figure 5-6.
23
Figure5-5. Press Zero on each axis,all clear to 0
Figure5-6. Main Screen after ZERO all axis

5.3 Open G code file and run
As Figure 5-7 shows,press “load G code” botton at the main page or open “Load G code” at main
menu “File”,open your G code.It displayed as Figure 5-8 showing,then press button “cycle start” then
machine start to work.
24
