Cannot calibrate custom axis

Postby Wizzzz » Sat Feb 03, 2024 7:13

Hi all,

I'm hoping this will be a simple fix. I've converted the vertical encoder on the front of the STECs module to an axis. However, while the left hand range is fine, the right hand range stops short of the axis length, at approximately 58082, rather than 65535 like the other axes.

I've tried calibrating the throttle in the normal manner, but it doesn't seem to recognise this custom axis's input, and stays locked at 58082 for its right hand range.

Could anyone kindly assist me to calibrate this new axis properly? Thanks in advance.

Show the Profile-Axes tab from the configurator indicating the virtual axis.

If you are using axis 6 for your encoder, that one is also tied to the plastic lever on the STEM (assuming Standard or Max). Check under global/external devices that all STEM axes are set to "none"; by default the first one is "virtual", which gives this error.
