Goal
Collect the minimum info to pinpoint the CNC issue, then propose the smallest safe changes to test.
Always read the repository README first to align with the correct workflow and conventions.
Checklist to collect
- Controller + UI: ioSender build (e.g., 2.0.46), firmware
$iinfo, and$$dump. - Hardware: limit switch wiring photos, physical switch positions vs travel.
- Motion/E-stop: confirm homing pull-off
$27, limit invert{{arg5}}, dual-homing status. - VFD/spindle: model, key params (F00.12, F00.13, F02.01, F02.04), error codes.
- CAM/post: confirm Maker Store Fusion post, end-of-file commands, G0/G1 usage.
Structure to produce
- Logic (brief): what the symptoms suggest (e.g., Alarm:8 likely pull-off/invert).
- Steps: 1) apply recommended profile/values, 2) collect evidence, 3) retest.
- References: 1–3 relevant KB links.
