Hi... I just recieved a email pointing to new software for the Velleman K8000.. Looks very good.. *Power WinPLC Professional 2002.* Made by Bart Vanderhaegen. ...
... I have asked velleman about the K8013. They say they never designed or produced the k8013 Appearently the Velleman K8013 does not exist. It toke me a while...

Have you thought of the PCF8575, it does the same job as the 8574, but is 16bit instead of 8. This may halve the number of 8574's you need, and save some...
Hi.. There have been questions about controlling the K8000 via internet. The maker of WinPLC has done something with it. A telnet prog. Not yet completed. ...

Hello, I've seen questions are asked about if it is possible to control the K8000 over a network. The answer to this question is simply YES. For this reason, ...

Hello, The majority of stepper motors operate at 12 VDC and consume between 50 mA and 500 mA of current. There are a few stepper motors that operate in the 2...

Your power calculations are correct. The maximum current through the stepper motor at any exact moment in time would be 5 A excluding inductive spikes due to...

Hello Marcel, Without having seen the actual Velleman schematic, I would speculate that the resistors are employed to define the impedance (Z) of the circuit. ...
