Here are some tuning-graphs I did in 2008. These are for brush DC-servos with Pico PWM drives and a Mesa 5i20 card with 4 kHz (IIRC) servo-thread. If I understand correctly these PWM-drives are "voltage-mode" which is neither speed nor torque, but the graphs might be instructive anyway... http://www.anderswallin.net/2008/04/pid-tunig/ http://www.anderswallin.net/2008/04/x-axis-test/ Someone should make a PID-tuning utility that makes it super-easy to capture these HALScope screenshots together with the PID-parameters used. I think we might see more logs of these tuning sessions on the interwebs then...
