Jarl,
Thanks for the info. Am I correct in assuming that from the hardware
end using your plasma-thc that I only need to supply a raise or lower
to EMC to make it work?
My current thoughts are to use a voltage divider from the plasma
voltage out pins to reduce the voltage to a 0 to 10vdc range

Hi all,
Well, I've gone and added a rotary axis to my xyz-minimill, and I've
managed to break my nice homing sequence. As it turns out, I guess I
don't understand homing as well as I thought I did, because I can't
figure out the following situation:
Yes, it has
Which coordinate system do you have the Axis display set to, machine or the
work offsets?
Sounds like it is displaying relative to the work offset (G54) and you have
a +3 inch offset of the Y axis.

I have a CNC4PC C1G parallel port interface card driving a Gecko 203v.
I have a 28vdc power supply and I am running the stepper without any
load just to get my configs setup... The highest velocity I can get is about
70 as reported on the Axis screen no matter what I set F at.
If I do a MDI G1
in your axis section - it seems your missing
MAX_VELOCITY = 6.7
(you want some stepgen headroom.)

Hi Jon,
You may want to ask Art to have another look. These days there are plug-ins
that are written that talk to various type of hardware. You would probably
have
to write the plug-in yourself with Arts help.

Are you sure those are unipolar motors? The geckos are bipolar drives,
and I don't see how they could work with unipolar motors.
