Hi Bengt,  Congratulations. Thanks for the video. It would have been nice for you to mention KFLOP or Dynomotion. It is so difficult to get Users to...
Hi Tom, Rest assured that there will be information in upcoming videos to your nice products and best of all the superior support. You deserve all credit Tom....
Hi Tom, Uploaded a new init file /PWMtoVFD/Mach3/combimill%203axis%20pwm.c Can you be so kind and have a look if it is correctly edited. ch4 was apparently not...
Hi Bengt,  Interesting you put the forever loop towards the beginning rather than towards the end. This is a common error I see a lot but can't understand...
Those are some very helpful links....Thanks. I can't absorb too much at one sitting, though. I found more than a few helpful things today, so far. :) I know...
Tom, I currently have four axes - X, Y, Z(quill), and A(knee). These are all connected using IO8-15. I now need to add an additional axis, for the stepper...
I'm looking at running Kflop with Kanalog on my mill with a haas 4th axis. All the motors are 24VDC servo motors. I also wanted to have rigid tapping...
Tom, Trying to sort this out, but it's confusing, and I'm especially confused by this line in the documentation: "Setting Bit-6 high of the register can be set...
Hello Ray, I'm not sure why Tom had to point this one out to me because I know I must have looked at it several times but did not really let it sink in. I had...
Hi Bengt, I moved the forever loop to the end as Version 3. What you had was: #1 - Output the PWM #2 - goto Step #1 #3 - Initialize the system The system will...
Hi Matt, You will need amplifiers that go between Kanalog and your Amplifiers. To do Rigid Tapping you will need an encoder on the spindle so that the Z axis...
Hi Ray, There is a mux option to move the 4 Step/Dir Generator outputs from JP7 to JP4 and JP6 (two each). JP4 and JP6 each only have two pins that are...
Hi Michael,  I appreciate you spending effort to improve your C.  Your new program is much better. Here are some critiques:  #1 - indentation style. ...
Hi Tom, Thank you very much, as always appreciated. I will try to look at those videos even if I have a difficulties to follow that pakistan-english, hopefully...
Thanks for the reply Tom! Yeah I was planning on running a encoder off the top of the tool changer drawbar deal for the my spindle. I don't have a VFD yet but...
Tom, I did a large re-wiring of my system today, which was about 95% successful. I moved the X/Y/Z/A axes from step generators 0-3 on JP7 over to step...
Hi Ray,  The first 8 IO pins on JP6 (and JP4) have 150ohm termination resistors (pull downs). To pull those high takes quite a bit of current (about...
Tom, Can I remove those pulldowns, or at least make them large enough for the pendant to be able to pull them down? I don't really have any other good places...
Tom, That also raises the question: What do you expect people to be driving those inputs with? It would take at least 22mA to pull them up to 3.3V, which is...
Hi Ray,  Yes those are very stiff. The aux ports were designed to talk to things like our SnapAmp that passes lots of data packets back and forth at...
Tom, I just got done dissecting the pendant (no small task, as it was NOT designed to ever be taken apart....), and adding the pull-ups. Oddly, it tool 220...
The nice thing about knowing very little is that even small gains are monumental. :-) I don't really follow your indention suggestion. I read some things about...
