2021-10-24 Thread Ralph Stirling
I'm interested in using the 7i90hd as an sserial remote, but am having trouble pulling all the pieces together to build a configuration. I will ultimately need four servo channels (encoder and pwm), three MPG channels, and a bunch of discrete i/o. I may split this up into two or three 7i90 ssr

Hi Chris, My student originally bought two of these Denso robots to improve his production line for 3d printer filament. Spool handling and the like. His filament business was very busy, and then it tanked. He is now back in school to finish the engineering degree he started 15 years ago or
