Andy,

Yes, as TYPE = ANGULAR in the joint section.

As for P,  yes that would seem to agree with what I am seeing.

I made some headway by starting at 24000 counts per degree (actual counts per 
revolution). Tuned that in, then did the same at 1000, 500, 250 and 125. Still 
struggling at 66.6666. Can get it to run slowly, but goes unstable at speed and 
sometimes when nearing the end point.

The other problem I encountered is that when I transferred the settings from 
the test configuration (All axes independant) to the production configuration 
(Y1 and Y2 joined), the tuning for the rotary axis changed.

I copied the Axis and Joint sections, so assume there must be a difference 
somewhere else, but have not found it.

One other problem I am seeing is very occasional following errors in Y1 (joint 
1) and Y2 (joint 3). Note: the rotary axis disabled in these cases. This only 
happens while running a gcode file, I have not been able to reproduce it on 
individual MDI moves for example. I set ferror for those joints way up to 10", 
but monitoring joint.n.ferror with halmeter or halscope, I never see ferror 
exceeding about 0.01".

Regards,
Eric
