HI Tom

Trying to update Kflop. I updated Kflop and rebooted both kflop and computer and I can't connect to kflop.
See message in att.

George

Hi Tom
Tried it your way and still doing the same thing. The interesting thing is that I even went as far as just turning on Output 5 nothing else . When the program gets to M03,
Mach3 freezes...

Hi Tom
Here are the files. The Mach version I am using is R3.043.066 and the kmotion is 4.33k

Hi Tom
Still scratching my head on the hanging problem. I rewrote the VB script program so Output 5 does not reset until Kflop sends a finished signal. (check att.)The purpose
of sending these...

Hi Tom
Working on another bug. I am having problems running GCode programs that have a drill command in it. I post from Sheet Cam and I use
the drill hole function to get the plasma head to leave...

Hi Tom. This makes sense. What command would I use to do a Hardware Feed Hold?

Hi Tom, just working on some bugs on my machine and I am having a problem when I activate the stop button in mach. When the machine is running in rapid G00
and I hit the stop button, the servo drive...

HI Tom

Just letting you know that the last software update seems to have solved the starting problem. So far the machine has started every time with no problems.

George

Hi Tom
This sounds very interesting. I have been working on the machine this week cleaning up some of the messy code. So your timing is good. I still have very strange start up problems and I am...

Hi Tom

Yes I linked the two axis the way you mentioned. I will play with the values you suggested and see if that makes any difference. On another note , I tried to load Kmotion on my home machine...

Hi Tom, I am using the dual loop method. This is working well . I fire the plasma ,wait for the pierce and then start the move in the digital loop on CH2 . Once 2 seconds pass I switch to the...

Hi Tom
I have been running my plasma cutter with good results for the past 6 months. If you recall I had lots of trouble getting the start of the BLDC motors to start and run with consistency. I...

Hi Tom

I checked my clamp voltage setting and you a right , it was set too low and I am not sure why. That was one of the first things I did when I got your controller and I may have not set it...

Hi Tom

My machine is still limping away. Unfortunately I am still have staring problems. I put a serious effort into looking for the problem and I did make some very good improvements. I f you...

Hi Bimp

My Name is George Butty from Butty Mfg. We manufacture custom machines and I just finished making a CNC plasma cutting machine. We can probably apply this technology to work for your...

Hi Tom

Machine is staring quite consistently. I can't get it to fault out if I jog it around in Mach even if I drive it into the limits. The only thing that does cause the z axis to fault...

Tom
Here Is my int. file I used.

George

Hi Tom
After coming back to this with a fresh mind I may have stumbled on the problem. I did what you suggested by check to see if the motor would come back to the index pulse at all times. I placed...

Hi Tom

I have been running my machine for the last 6 months and it is running reasonably well. I still have 3 or four software bugs I need to work on but I am managing to keep it running. I do...

Hi Tom

I have been running my machine for the last few months and it is working quit well. I have managed to get the startup problem under control by adding RC filters to the index pulse signal....

Hi Tom

My problem is with Mach. I set OEMcode 123 (which is toggle torch on/off) too NotifyPugin(10102) and it sets the bit 50 high but when I toggle it ,it won't go low. I am reading it in...

Hi Tom

I have been running my machine for the last few weeks and it is running reasonably well. I still do have starting problems but after two three restarts it work well for the day. I am quit...

Hi Tom

I ran a few limit switch step resonce moves into the Ch1+ limit. I attached the data so you could take a look. About reprograming the limits. Is it not possible to program the limits to...

Hi Tom

Thanks for the explanation for the commutation. What I am not sure of is when does the actual theta value get applied in our startup sequence. In our startup we first rotate the motor as a...

Hi Tom

After taking a closer look at the plots , you are right. It makes no sence to have any improvements from delaying the stop. I am still have starting issues but not as bad. I still don't...

Tom

Look at earlier post first. This is data showing start before time delay.


George

Hi Tom

Please read earlier post first. Data with no time delay attached

George

Hi Tom

Read earlier post first .Startup plots without delay

George

Hi Tom

After spending the last two weeks working on the startup issue for my machine it looks like I finnally got to the root of the problem. The noise from your snap amps is part of it but I...
