I will try to explain: I am trying to tune 2 motors simultaneously, because it is a gantry machine. So what I did few minutes ago: For both motors: all PID parameters set to 0 P = 3 I tried to jog the gantry at slow speed. At 240 mm/min it is smooth, at 480 mm/min still smooth, but at 676 mm/min there are spots, when one of motors stalls and oscillates in small amount at high frequency. I suspect that the stalling is due to some uneven load to motor, when moving forward. Anyway, I d not know, how to overcome such stalls and subsequent oscillation. Hitting F2 to disable and re-enable motion stops oscillation and I can jog forward. Until one of motors stalls and starts vibrating again. I do understand that final settings for both gantry motors might differ, I just think that in the beginning they could be tuned together as both of them are stalling now.
