I have a page that has some fairly old information here:

If so, any suggestions on hardware and comfiguration.

IIRC correctly the pre CPLD drives did not have full step morphing. Also the
new drives have a much improved recirculation sequencing. This means that heat
sinking requirements for the drives are greatly reduced.
Also the advantage of the CPLD design is that it makes it harder to reverse

The G201A and some other drives from years ago used CD4000 CMOS chips and
had all this. Those drives could be deciphered fairly easily.

Andy P., you said on IRC that it was a long time needed bugfix that took
away the ability to type ahead while doing things in the MDI mode. I hope
you measure "long time" in years because I've been using that feature for
much of a decade.

Hi Kirk,
The answer is below. Mariss, puts a lot into the public domain. That way it's

Hi all,
I have a tangential tool application with a pneumatically controlled 2
position Z axis. Thus I control the head up / head down, directly with
digital I/O. I also have the head coming up and turning off automatically on
a pause, stop or fault. That is all working fine.

This is hard to explain without looking at the screen. IF you choose
to machine config in EMC 2.6 you are able to change and test the axis
values while EMC is open. My Y axis is missing the input box to change
the resolution. I would like to find out how to add and remove the
input boxes for t

Pity, it won't compile for realtime without forward kinematics. Though it
worked on simulator.
Have to program the forward now...

Hi,
I changed genhexkins for my 3 axis platform. It's pretty simple, inverse
kins only, forward to be done. It is compiled and works well on simulator.
But on realtime PC it compiles with lot of errors, and I can't identify the
source.
There's obviuosly some error in genhexkins, whish causes those
