It might be that Pncconf doesn't teack following error, or has higher limits. However, if this is a stepper system then "following error" means something slightly different to what it means in a servo system. It means that the system has not been able to make the number of steps requested. What this typically means is that the system stepgen accelleration numbers are bigger than the step generator limits. Have a look through your INI file and check that the step-generator accel limits are "a bit" higher than the system and axis limits. Is the machine a gantry system? The other possibility is that the step-generator feedback is going to the wrong axis. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.
