S, Colin K pis(e:
Is there a way to record a series of entirely manual (not MDI) moves for
playback as a program?

What happens now with your Lotus Notes apps - do you make another costly
upgrade, or settle for
If the pulse from EMC or any other program is consistent, then your circuit
only needs one little tactile switch. If you press this switch, the micro
will go into learn mode and time the interval between pulses from EMC. If
can now add a +/- 10% or whatever margin and flag the alarm outside that.
Hi Kirk:
Thanks for ur interest in my project.
The reason that I am having to do something about my steppers is that my
machine started off life as a toy, mini desktop.
I changed things and up graded the size of the whole machine so I could do
real work with it.
The steppers I have are
Slavco,
nice work, do you have UV axis for camera? else i dont imagine how
'machine moves to where camera was'.

Hi Igor
If you have 30°F that are -1°C
I saw other machines fail on +10°C because of too high oil viscosity.
Guide ways just stick like being fozen against.
This will become worse as temperature falls below 20°C
We had a lubrification pump just burn because it was not able to turn
the wheel in
I agree with you, Ulf. By the way, I mistyped something, I reduced my
maximum X speed from 90 to 60 IPM, not 30.

I have made some prototype wooden mazes for my son Tenzing on my small
table top NC router.
After making a few, my spindle (cheap harbor freight laminate router)
decided to die. Producing any number of these will need a bigger machine.
He is interested in finding someone (preferably in NW

Gentlemen,
The feedhold button on the Enshu stops the program but it resets the

If you're talking about the hal pin touchy.abort, yes. That's abort
and reset.

I have used many VFDs, but in all of them the stopping time is
programmed in terms of seconds.
This does not translate well into operating machine tools with
multiple speeds. On such tools, slowly rotating spindle can be stopped
quickly and more time is needed to stop a fast rotating spindle. If

Do you remember the pulses/degree for the American Robot? We put a
different drive on the axis 2. It moves slower than the other arms, it gives
a following error after a few degrees, it is noisy. I think the drive does
not have the microstepping required. It will do 50. We have one

Why don't they have VFDs with adaptive stopping cycle, so that they
reduce the frequency to maintain high bus voltage (to be dumped into
the brake resistor), adaptively, as opposed to mindlessly doing it on
a predetermined linear

Your memory is very good. The only problem is you never knew what I need
to know. :)
I should have a drive with the (I think) required stepping capability later
this week.
thanks

Yes, I adjusted the scale to allow motion. I think .3 * 50 / 128
will give me the correct movement/encoder count
