Some progress with Crossfire. I was able to run the setup program and preform the THC test which worked fine. An issue that I can use a hand with if anyone has the time.
I suspect that my Z axis may be defective. I took the torch and the red holder off to validate that it moves freely up and down. It appears ( At first) that it is stuck in the down position. I can hear the motor charge when I press up but the screw shaft does not rotate. Test #5ish and it did move up halfway but this seemed random.
Ok. Those symptoms are usually caused by the connector where it plugs into the electronics enclosure. Unscrew the screws that hold the Z motor electrical connection and push the connector all the way in. Leave the screws loose and try to jog it again.
Shazam! That was it. Just a simple loose connection that can rightfully be pointed out as operator error… I check and found that I had not tightened the cable and it simply came loose.
TCH IHC both work perfectly and I did my first successful test cut.
