Title: laptop runs motrs 1/2 speed compared to desktop
Post by: widpyro on April 23, 2010, 10:17:12 AM

I am running a program successfully on a desktop but when I use my laptop the motors don;t run smoothly and do so at 1/2 speed. How do I fix the problem?
Thanks,

Probably due to the quality of the pulse signal coming out of the laptop PP.
Some laptops work fine, some just don't work very well, never know.

It runs exactly half speed. Wouldn't this indicate something other then a "weak pulse?" I'm stumped.

Are the parts coming out accurate to size?

So you have dumped the XML off the desktop to the laptop....yea?
