Hello, i need help adding PWM spindle control (for a DC motor) to my CRAMPS board. Currently i have 5 axis (X, Y, Z, Extruder 0(A), Extruder 1(C)) and have Fans on "LED/FAN outputs". I tried customizing the HAL file but everytime it creates an error "pin XXXXX does not exist". I dont know which pin i can use for PWM. The PWM DC Motor controller i may want to use works with 15KHZ and goes from 0-100%, is that frequency possible? Also do i need a Spindle enable signal? Also i want to be able to manually run the spindle at random speed and have a slider to adjust spindle speed (if possible)
this spindle configuration is from this google group but for a welder: #using M3/M5 for welder on/off net spindle-enable motion.spindle-on => bb_gpio.p9.out-15 #pwm for torch intensity scaled 0-100% setp hpg.pwmgen.00.out.02.pin 927 setp hpg.pwmgen.00.out.02.enable 1 setp hpg.pwmgen.00.out.02.value 0.0 net spindle-speed-cmd motion.spindle-speed-out => hpg.pwmgen.00.out.02.value setp hpg.pwmgen.00.out.02.scale 100 and this one is from the Pocket NC: loadrt scale names=spindleScale addf spindleScale servo-thread ### Spindle ### net spindleEnable <= motion.spindle-on net spindleEnable => bb_gpio.p9.out-24 net spindleDirection <= motion.spindle-forward net spindleDirection => bb_gpio.p9.out-11 thanks, (honestly i dont really know what i have to do, its just too complicated for me) stevie -- 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.
