Title: Fourth Axis
Post by: sandcrab on February 16, 2011, 08:38:05 PM
I have added a fourth axis to the Series 1 and have been through the ports and pins and motor tuning and have it performing smoothly.
I have been controlling it with the "4" arrows in the flyout. Is there a standard hotkey for the A axis? I assume I will need change the 999 to a
hotkey.
I do not have a limit or home switch yet, so when I attempt to calibrate it the revolutions it makes are not easily measured. Can the DRO readout be used to bracket the 360 degrees of rotation?
