[TRAJ] AXES = 4 COORDINATES = X Y Z A MAX_ANGULAR_VELOCITY = 30.00 <--------- DEFAULT_ANGULAR_VELOCITY = 10.00 <------- ANGULAR_UNITS = degree <------- You can adjust the arrowed values. Mine is a stepper driven POS & not very fast & too much backlash. :( AIUI, the ABC axis's are assumed to be rotary for most purposes. They correspond to having a axis of rotation that is aligned with X for A, Y for B and Z for C. Eg when the table is flat on the mills table facing up, then it becomes axis C, standing on the end of the mills table facing the other end of the mills table which may have a tail stock mounted on the other end, it is axis A There are similar entries in the individual AXIS sections: [AXIS_3] TYPE = ANGULAR HOME = 0.0 MAX_VELOCITY = 30.0 MAX_ACCELERATION = 200.0 STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 300.0 I see I don't have any "headroom" in MAX_VELOCITY, which could lead to joint following errors, so I should add 5 to the axis 3 entry. New computer, new profile, new driver packages & not at all optimized yet. :) For C use, the [AXIS_3] and [AXIS_4] entries need to be there but empty, and the above becomes [AXIS_5] HTH.
