This guide shows how to move the Y-Sensor bracket, and how to remove the Y-Sensor if it needs replacing. Follow it if the gantry hits the back of the laser when it first homes, or if you had a camera collision. Otherwise, this guide is not for you.
Warning: Turn the machine off and unplug it before you start.
What you need
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Cabinet key
- New Y-Sensor, if you are replacing it
Adjust the Y-Sensor
-
With the cabinet key, open the upper left panel and the lower panel on the right side of the machine.
-
Find the Y-Sensor. It is in the upper left cabinet, on the far right side.
-
Using a Phillips head screwdriver, loosen the two screws in front of the Y-Sensor by 1 to 2 turns. A regular screwdriver fits comfortably inside the cabinet.
With the screws loosened, move the Y-Sensor to the correct position, then tighten the screws.
Remove the Y-Sensor
-
Unscrew the two screws completely and set them aside.
-
The Y-Sensor is connected by a wire that you can reach from the lower cabinet.
-
Reach into the upper right side of the lower cabinet and find the black wire connected to the Y-Sensor. Gently pull the wire to remove it from the sensor, and let it hang into the lower cabinet.
Fit the replacement Y-Sensor by repeating the steps in reverse.
