So my question is why are these so far out of the normal range where for a stepgen FF1=1.0 and FF2 = .001 is about right. Something else must be seriously out of whack. But what? pid_A.output is almost straight to the pwmgen.A.value, with that pwmgen in mode 2. An idb in the middle of the link seems to be without measurable effect, but maybe I've not tried a high enough idb.amount. That is currantly at 10, a value I would think would make it overshoot and oscillate but does not.
