hallo, in my inverted tetrapod i've set the 4 axis as: X Y Z A, in this way: > [TRAJ] > AXES = 4 > COORDINATES = X Y Z A > LINEAR_UNITS = mm > ANGULAR_UNITS = degree > CYCLE_TIME = 0.010 > DEFAULT_VELOCITY = 300.00 > MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 3000.00 > > [AXIS_0] to [AXIS_3] **they are equal** > TYPE = LINEAR > HOME = 2900.0 > MAX_VELOCITY = 3000.0 > MAX_ACCELERATION = 300000.0 > STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 375000.0 > SCALE = 5.26142716212 > FERROR = 2.0 > MIN_FERROR = 1.0 > MIN_LIMIT = -3000.0 > MAX_LIMIT = 4000.0 > HOME_OFFSET = 2900.0 > but in EMC2 i jog X Y Z with the normal jog speed, then the A with the spindle speed. after that, when i'm in wolrd mode X Y Z move, while A become the spindle and stay at 0. i know EMC2 is not meant for tetrapod, but which is the best way to set up axis? i've tryed using XYZU, but i have problems homing. i can home in some way (using the menu) but when i change to world mode it says that first i've to home all axis.
another question: i can jog directly the first three axis, using arrows and pgup/down. how can i jog the fourth axis? thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
