I built a CNC machine to move my plasma torch. I used the MKS DLC 32 version 2.1 card. Unfortunately the online controller and the remote app don't offer z-axis control. This makes it very difficult to zero the z-axis before initiating a cut. I have to connect to a laptop and launch Open Builds Controller just to zero the z-axis. Then unplug and switch over to the remote app. Running the G-Code off the card is the only way I can operate the machine without getting interference from the plasma cutter. If I try to run open builds to do the cut it will corrupt the signals and the machine will stop after about 1 minute into the project. Why doesn't Makerbase offer z-axis control in their software? They offer x y and z on the control board so why not on the software?
@Endurance robots channel Hello, thanks for your video. May I ask how you got CC01 to appear in "device" of xloader as it does not appear in my list. I have a Makerbase DLC board v2.1 which I am trying to upload to. I selected Mega something and the upload is taking a very long time. It is still going on at this moment and I am going to have to interrupt it, I reckon.
