I have a weird bug with the jog controls. Whenever I touch the screen the left jog indicator turns green. I do also applied protection film on the touchscreen and sometimes it makes the left jog indicator light stuck on green like it is being pressed on constantly.
Does anyone has the same issue? I am on 24.1.3 beta version and did a jog arm delete mod without modifying the cable length.
Possibly a grounding issue in the jog button? Is the jog button grounded to metal or is it isolated with plastic? The green jog button looks and feel great, they are low price, inferior quality chino junk IMO. Mine sticks shut and I already crashed my ram once while in manual mode, so Iām replacing it with an American made Allen Bradley 800. I have only once jog switch that has both L&R wires soldered together to make both controlled by just one jog button. ( see my post on this if your interested )
I removed the long jog arms and replaced it with 3D printed shorter arms, so it is basically isolated from the main chassis. However, jog button itself works fine without any problems, when pressed it does also turns the left jog indicator green.
Just a random idea, but maybe try reversing the red and black wires to the switch ?
Will try it! Thanks. I do contacted to support as well. I wonder if they ever encountered such issue before.
FYI - most plastics can transmit at least some electrical current - just for fun, put a volt meter on your car + battery terminal and the other lead the plastic case in various locations, and it will read 2-3V, depending on how dirty it is. You might want to try removing the 3D printed shorter arm part and trying to duplicate the issue.
Solved the issue.
Apparently it was a short circuit between machine chassis and left jog button wiring.
A simple fix with zip ties on both jog buttons to secure the plastic covers over the connectors solved the problem.
Also I installed rivet nuts to the jog arm screw holes for easier installation in future.
