Hi Howard You're right of course. My fault for reading the schematics and not the words. Forward and reverse pulses are available for essentially open loop moves. These are available using EMC2 and a parallel port bu I'm with others that this is a poor substitute for real closed loop servo systems. As long as you spend the money for this quality of drive you should take advantage of it's abilities by sending it velocity commands from EMC rather than descrete steps.

Date: Fri, 14 Mar 2008 00:06:03 +0800 ... Rayh said that EMC2 and Sanyo servo amp support step and direction. I try to find this method in the Sanyo manual and HAL handbook but I am not sure is it correct. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
