Title: Galil plugin sends TM 1000 but I need TM 125?
Post by: PontusF on March 27, 2014, 05:30:19 PM

Hello,
I am using Mach3Turn with Galil. I have to set the servo update rate to 125 microseconds (TM 125 command) to get the servo performance I need. My axes (servo motors) run fine in Galiltools, but they wont work in Mach3 since it sends the TM 1000 command for some reason (I checked with GalilDebug.txt). What is the reason for this and is there a known workaround?

We depend on the sample period that is defined by TM1000.  The plugins makes calculations based on this default and thus there is no workaround.  :(

The TM1000 is sent by the plugin to make sure that TM is what we need it to be.
