Dear All, I have set up a lathe machine with analog AC servos and Mesa 7i43 and 7i33. The following error is 0.017 mm at start (acceleration) and then reduced to 0.008 mm at 6000 mm/min. Everything is just fine except:
When the machine is homed the axis moves towards home switch, touches it and then moves away with latch velocity. As the index pulse is encoutered the axis stops with a "DHUCKK" sound. The sound only comes in homing when the axis are away from home switch ( say 150 mm). The machine runs fine rest of the moves. I can jog it at 7200 mm/min, stop it then move it in reverse direction without any sound. The setting for HOME_SEARCH_VEL is 20 mm/sec and HOME_LATCH_VEL is set at -1.0 mm/sec. The hal scope trace of the f-error signal shows an error of 0.06 mm and pid output saturated for very small time. I am using 2.4.7 on ubuntu 10.04. Kindly advise?
