Hello!
We received a new ShopBot Desktop (with Spindle) straight from the company about a month ago and have been putting it together as we have time.
Most recently we have zero'd the x and y and are now trying to zero the z axis. We have followed the manual for all installation thus far and in the z zeroing process have the following issue:
(1) Attach the clip to the collet or an included metal bit that is installed in the collet.
(2) Touching the Z-Zero plate to the bottom of the bit should trigger Input #1.
(3) Touching the Z-Zero plate to the bottom of the bit fails to trigger Input #1.
(a) The clip is installed in the first slot of the WAGO connector;
(b) The Z-Zero plate is installed in the second slot of the WAGO connector;
(c) The WAGO connector is plugged into the front, where it goes;
(d) The ShopBot Desktop is connected to the computer and can otherwise be controlled by the software;
As far as troubleshooting, what should my next steps be?
Thank you, ShopBot Family!
