It is far more accurate mohave the software "remember" the number of steps between the index pules. This As I wrote above, this also provides a diagnostic that wiiltell you the machine is out of adjustment and needs help from a human. I think with most motion control projects it is best to not build in mechanical adjustments. For example you screw the home switch in tight and even Locktite the screws so it will never move. Then if for some reason zero needs to move you tell the software to "add 5" or whatever to the values. Anything that is adjustable will always get itself out of spec require adjustment. > > -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
