Alex, Your code has successfully driven my (not simulated) Puma560, I'm having problems with the speed/accel. limitations (as they are axis limits, not joint limits) The only solution I have a.t.m. is to reduce the overall speed so no joint limits are reached (works if no singularities come to

Dan, the kinematics of this robot type is quite trivial to solve, this image should help in figuring it out: http://imagebin.org/33869 The trick is in using substitution (ZR-plane) and putting the center of the world coordinate system in the rotation centers of the first and second joints.

Hi, I'm building a stepper configuration from 2 old floppy stepper motors, and use quadrature signals to control them. For the hal-configuration I started with the stepper_mm config and modified it to output quadrature signals. the steppers move when a jog in Axis, without following errors (even
