Dear Tom, it's confusing a little bit what's happening, i spent 2 days with this small problem, i did spent 2 days of testing to be able to understand exactly...
Hi Peter Sorry about your confusion/frustration. All you should need to do is: #1 Load our SimpleStepDirAxis0.mot example into an axis channel. #2 Change the...
Hi I have 2 brushed motors connected to Kmotion Axes 2 and 3, and three brushed motors connected to the SnapAmp Axes 0,1 and 2. How can I measure the...
Hi Azd, Here is a function that will return the approximate KMotion current magnitude for an axis channel in Amps. float GetCurrent(int ch) {  return...

Thank you Dear Tom for the useful information you sent, i did what you ask me to do but I'm receiving an error message when press step or move see attached...
Hi Peter, JP5 pins 1 and 2 are connected to Step Dir Generator #4. Why did you use 8 and 9? Only the first number (OutputChan0) is used. It doesn't...
Dear Tom, i will try using another PC but windows 7 instead of XP SP3. i will keep you posted I'm using version 4.19 and i load the last firmware coming with...
Dear Tom, here attached motors files of my 2 axes and it's working using another PC with KFLOP only now, please check these files and give your feedback about...
Why did you send 4 files? TK ________________________________ From: Peter Tannoury <turbofox99@...> To: DynoMotion@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tue, May 4, 2010...
Dear Tom, here my new results you asked why i sent you 4 motors files, plz check attachment picture, this showing that i can't configure ch0 and ch1 as it...

Peter, Please answer each of the following questions because I think we are mis-communicating on some fundamental things that we need to get straight: #1 - Do...
Tom, this exactly what's confusing me, i understand all what you are trying to explain to me, I'm not a beginner in this field, and I made a data acquisition...
Hi Peter, After our phone conversation, I looked up the drive specs. See: http://www.leadshineusa.com/Show_Product.asp?id=200&Class_Name=&B_Id Going along...
I have found one of my Getty's N360 servo drives to be bad. I now want to replace all of them with new drives. Do you have any recommendations on what drives...
Hi Chris, No Geckos are designed to close the loop themselves and just be told where to go via Step/Direction. You could go that route and use the KFLOP...
Hello Dear Tom, thanks for the time you spent with me on the phone this morning, i made tests for pulses signal and leadshine stepper drive opto consumption,...
Hi Peter, Well the scope proves that the pulses are really there. Since your motor doesn't move the drive must not like the voltage levels or the pulse...
Tom, I am having servo amp problems and weighing my options. One question I have is can I still using Mach 3's G31 probing feature if I use the KFlop in an...
Tom, Say a fellow found a deal on some PWM versions. Would it work? Sorry to keep bugging you. Chris Sent from my BlackBerry® smartphone ... From: Tom Kerekes...
Hi Chris, Regarding probing: Yes it assumes the commanded position is the actual position. If the servo is working well the difference should be small at...
Hi Chris, Not sure exactly what you mean by PWM Version. But Yes KFlop has 4 8-bit PWM outputs 3.3V TTL @ 60KHZ max or lower (30KHz, 20KHz...) You need a...
Tom, The Advanced Motion Controls BD30A8 is what I am calling the "PWM Version". http://www.a-m-c.com/content/prods/descriptions/drives/pwm_input.html Again...
Hi Chris, Those look good except I see one problem. The KFLOP PWM outputs are 3.3V signals and this drive expects a 5V sinking output drives. Unlike the...
I have a call into the manufacturer asking about the 5V signal tolerance. I really appreciate your time helping me out. Chris Sent from my BlackBerry®...
Hi Chris & Tom I have been pondering this question in my spare time (I don't have enough of it at the moment). I was going to make up a very small board that...
