Very helpful my MPG is working took me too long because i didn't read your notes until i was ready to give up my MPG was disabled in the RnRMoton Addon. that little bit of information saved me thank you,
Sir thank you for sharing, i tested working but i noticed the DRO does not change for each detent. I checked under diagnostic it does show any problems. It seems to change dro every 10 points, example 10,20....90
Thanks Yes , you can use 3 axes and 3 steps for example instead of "A" axis , connect "1x" wire and config it in Mach3 as well and change 188 OEM code to 191 and test it

@@jrmichel Hi , To troubleshoot do step by step first just connect the MPG encoder and check its settings. then add one axis to check movement. try to use the encoder to move the axis without pushing the side button and see its feedback If you see any problems in movement, adjust motor tuning in settings and lower your velocity and check again.

What plugin do i have to use ? Do you have a link to plugin download , i connected everything as you did and nothing comes up except the mpg led, i have sam bob and mpg
Hi I am using this RnRMotion plugin: drive.google.com/file/d/1MP2sYZ91PUQWU0tUXL7es5HeQoBf_dgm/view just this plugin and other settings must be set correctly in Mach3 software. Be sure all wirings connect correctly too.
Hi! And could you make a video of how the CNC machine behaves under the control of the MPG? I made an MPG in the same way and set it up like you. On the Mach3 screen, everything works decently. But the machine works successfully only with jog step x1. When switching to x10 and even more so to x100, the machine becomes crazy: it moves at high speed, skips steps, etc. Settings Mach3 (MPG calibration) does not give any results. It also makes no difference what parameters are set in General Config (Jog Increments in Circle Mode). Thank you!

Hey, can you help me? I want to use the inputs for something else instead for a handweel. I wanna use the inputs for the endstops and e-Stop. I unse port 3 and pin 5-13 but nothing works 🙈
Hi They can be use just for general inputs as a key or push button, so you can use them for for e-stop or run, pause , stop and so on , but not for endstops next video will be about these compabilities about adding more 8 push button.
Hello. I am using the same bob and MPG. I did what you did, all connections, config etc. Everything is working except encoder. When i open Rnr motion card plugin window, i can see the MPG A and MPG B ticks. While i am rotating encoder they are blinking but Mach 3 is not counting at Settings (Alt-6) window so i can not move my axis. Can you help me please ?
Hello If MPG A and MPG B ticks and while rotating they must change, for the test I use a rotary encoder module (for arduino) and it works somehow ok 1. The encoder must be 5v 2. If all settings are ok , check with another BOB let me know the result
The video was very helpful I followed the settings, but each axis and speed change is reflected in mach3. But the off switch doesn't work. Even in the video, it is off, but the x-axis appears to be selected. How should I solve this?
Hi off switch? you mean the side key? In some models the side key works as an on and off switch and some others use like my model. even after releasing the side key , the previous axis must be selected.
@@manifa59 My mpg is for the model without the side key. What I'm talking about is a rotary switch that selects the X, Y, and Z axes. Even if you leave this switch in the off position, the x-axis is still selected. I asked because I wasn't sure if I should use it in this state or if I had done something wrong with the settings.
Hi, to get X1 speed do you leave x10 and x100 high, or pull both to 0v (low), the manual is confusing it states, X10 and X100 are selectors for resolution multiplication of steps move per encoder pulse, connected both is X1 by default
Hello.Thanks for your video. I set up my hand wheel according your video. I have one problem. X1 Its ok ( calibraton of MPG was Done). When I switch to X10 or X100, my motors doesn't go fluently.When I look at unit/mm there Is too hide numbers...nobody Is able to help.
As I know if your velocity and acceleration is so high , your motor movement does not work well, change these values , and you can use other values for x10 and x100 too
@@manifa59but when I drive on my keyboard, motors go well (also when I use Shift - full Speed). IT is something like software don't akcept highest value of motors speeds.

Hi x100 goes so fast , this is fast based on config -> motor tuning and highest velocity that you defined there , try to decrease the value and test again mostly losing steps means incorrect and higher velocity that you defined. one more thing , you can change the value of x100 to lower value in config - general config - jog increments
