Re: [Emc-users] Problems with axises in auto and mdi

When I get it to mess up the motor-pos-cmd is jittering at the 4th 5th 6th etc decimal place, so is the pos cmd and the pos cmd fdback. The dir is also bouncing back and fourth but the step appears to be fine. Andy John Kasunich wrote: andyholcomb wrote: This is a new and updated (today

[Emc-users] Problems with axises in auto and mdi

Re: [Emc-users] Abort messes up position
