Thanks for the reply. It was just a general question. I've got stuck in my
mind, the image of the lathe turning as "turning a super fine thread", and
was wondering if it stopped when it got to the shoulder and retracted, would
it leave that part of the "thread" that it didn't get around to machin

Yes, this confuses me, too. It may be that some other parameter is
actually causing it, and the I term either helps or doesn't help to
suppress the erro

Frank,
I G04 dwell would do the same thing as what you do manually. How
critical is the squareness of the shoulder at the diameter of the
turned shaft? Do you need a very accurate corner radius? If you need a
VERY accurate corner radius you should use a smaller corner radius on
the turning tool
Hello all,
I have just now gotten my mill up and running, and am trying to optimize
the motion and speed of the motors.
Has anyone used a CMD-50 driver from API? I have the manual, but the
only timing info it has is:

current

Thank you Franck!
I used halrun or halui to test my Joypad early in my attemtps, all was OK
from that point of view.
Halrun commands showed pins in command line interface, halui showed values
obtainable on sticks and buttons. All gave satisfaying results.
Of course I took care of the chmod 660

As other people have mentioned, you haven't told us what part is not
working. Joypads and USB devices can be difficult because of Linux's
permissions and the way hotplugging works (device drivers can claim control
of the device).

One other thing, I would also suggest you disable "Idle current reduction"
on your controller board if that is an option. I was on the HCNC list for
quite some time and many people had strange issues when idle current
reduction was enabled, apparently the driver chips also have that "feature"
built
I would suggest checking this page:
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Stepper_Drive_Timing
It only has the HCNC pro listed but I believe they use the same driver
chips.
I have the HCNC Pro and have not seen the issues you mention, although like

Hi Frank,
thanks for the report.
The _best_ thing you can do, is report this issue as a new bug at:

That way it would surely not be forgotten.
