Re: Stg/Emc Jogging problem

Hi, Jim

 

I have been just setting up the same hardware. I do not have such

a problem, although I have a homing issue (soon to be fixed we think).

 

I suspect that you just have the gain too high on an axis.

 

Or you may have an offset.

 

Could you describe the amps, motors, and other hardware you are using?

 

A good first cut on pid that can be done with no instrumentation is the

Zeigler- Nichols closed loop tuning method. It worked quite well on EMC

for me. Plenty of information about it on the net- or I can explain further

if you need.

Subject: Stg/Emc Jogging problem

Hi,

While making adjustments to to P,I &D  I noticed that if two axis are jogged simultaneously , one axis will latch on and will only stop if its jog key is pressed again.I am using EMC in conjunction with a ServoToGo 2 ,8 axis card.Any help would be appreciated,

Jim.
