Backlash problem

edelec

I fully realise that backlash does not work in manual, however it is supposed to work in auto.
To set up backlash I did the following -
In manual X- a bit X+ a bit Y- a bit Y+ a bit. Zero Controller Zero DRO. In auto run the program TestBL.nc which comprises
g0 x20
y20
x0
y0

When complete my DRO shows X at +.085 and Y at +.2  these therefore are my backlash values.
I enter them in the parameters and enable backlash
I then go through the same manual sequence and DRO and controller set zeros
Then I run the program
When complete my DRO shows X at 0.0 and Y at +0.2

I have powered down and tried this a number of times with the same result that Y backlash is not being accomodated but X backlash is!
I have also played with speeds and accelerations to ensure that I am not losing steps.

This together with the Probing problem makes me a bit p**d off!

Any comments?

I believe I have now sorted the problem and have backlash working
