Greating to all, So I've got a lot of cuts out of my 3 axis machine running on a BBB / Xylotex configuration, now I added a 4th axis and am having trouble figuring out the values to calibrate it and make it move as expected.
I've based my config around Xylotex.ini and Xylotex.hal example configs, but to arrive at the actual distances on my steppers and lead screws I had to lower the scale to about 20000. All the axes work as expected with those settings. The thing is, now I've added a 4th axis with a 20-to-1 ratio worm wheel, and when I issue a G1 A90 F100 code (I'm assuming this is right to ask for 1/4 turn?), for example, with the scale at 20000, it gives me around 10 turns on the axis. When I try to decrease the scale I get to 400 and it moves about right, but really slowly. I've tried to increase speeds after that but without success. Could somebody please point me on which settings to edit, so my other axes still work and the 4th can move at a decent speed at the right rate? All the best, Diego -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
