RE: G-Code Problem

["Tim Goldstein" <timg-at-ktmarketing.com>]

A few things that popped right out at me. You have the PERIOD parameter
when you are using steppermod.o. You should comment out the line. You
also have a MAX_VELOCITY in the TRAJ section that is smaller than the
largest MAX_VELOCITY in an axis section. It the TRAJ value should always
be bigger by about 30 - 40%. Also, your IO controller does not match
your task controller. Also I seem to remember that you can reduce the
CYCLE_TIME in the axis and the TRAJ section to increase the possible
pulse rate with steppermod.o. Yours looks on the high side.
