    everything worked.
    i then tried to run a file the z axis drove to the top and slammed into the stop.
    i tried other files same problem.
    also reinstalled everything same problem/
    also tried another computer same problem.
    once this happen the zero plate does not work anymore.
    bit comes down hit plate does not move up.
