1. Install the carriage encoder and the machine encoder before
putting your machine and carriage onto your frame.
2. With the wheel on the encoder, fasten it back in place on
machine or carriage . Make sure the set screw is left loose
at this point.
3. Place Machine on frame--advance the set screw 90 degrees.
4. Once both encoders are installed and you feel push back
from the spring, plug the encoder cables into the back side
of the Block RockiT.
1. Press the top left button on the left handle of the Block RockiT
to go to the MAIN MENU on your LCD screen. Use the 2 buttons
on the right of the right handle to scroll up and down.
2. Scroll to the TOOLS option and use the left button on the
right handle to select TOOLS. Then scroll to and select
DIAGNOSTICS. Then select ENCODER TEST.
3. Move machine forwards and back as well as side to side. If both
X and Y buttons show green on the screen, both encoders are
correctly reading your movement. If X or Y have not shown solid
green, then make sure encoders are touching the tracks and
then test again.
