Just a note . The debugging pins aren't listed into the PDF doc (as I can see) . I was watching that documentation . Thanks again. Alex On Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 4:40 PM, alex chiosso achio...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you . I am blind . :-) Alex On Fri, Oct 17, 2014 at 4:35 PM, andy pugh

Hi Sebastian. I was looking at the Integrator Manual at the section that describes the motion Hal component. Il giorno 17/ott/2014 20:49, Sebastian Kuzminsky s...@highlab.com ha scritto: On 10/17/2014 08:44 AM, alex chiosso wrote: Just a note . The debugging pins aren't listed into the PDF

Why do not use a custom M function syncronized to do that ? M1xx G1 X100 Y240 F100 Into the M1xx you can fit the Hal code to perform what you need. Il giorno 17/ott/2014 21:30, a k pccncmach...@gmail.com ha scritto: About: I was wondering if motion.motion-type would work but that distinguishes

The 611 only is analog and the 611D are digital . Do you have the complete code for that servo drive ? I do believe that with the Siemens product code you should be able to find the PDF documentation on the net . I used this servo system in the past years and it's quite similar to other servo

Re: [Emc-users] Conditional code- GOTO

Hi to all. Wondering why the GOTO feature is a bad thing to have I was reading a USA brand CNC manufacturer (Delta Tau PMAC-NC Pro2 http://www.deltatau.com/manuals/pdfs/PMAC-NC%20Pro2.pdf) and they use GOTO as a standard function for the NC program control into parametric programming FANUC style .
