Hello again.

Sorry to resurrect an old topic - I've been working away from home for a while and am just catching up a bit with bits and pieces of the build. Since my last post, I've come across some instructions for the drivers I'm using, but they're in German - although I think it's probably fairly straightforward to decipher the diagrams if you know what you're looking at.

I've attached a couple of images - one is of the German instructions and the other of the LinuxCNC Stepper Mill config window - the bit I'm concerned with is the "Driver Timing Settings" section.

I'm led to believe that the German instructions pertain to the "Driver Timing Settings" and this is how the text translates:

Schrittimpuls = Step Pulse

Richtungssignal = Direction Signal

Freigabesignal = Enable Signal

My motors work with the default settings - indeed, they work with a load of different settings, but since this info comes from a German manual distributed by a vendor, it's probably more likely to be correct, rather than me mashing in a load of numbers...

So, based on the diagrams, am I correct in thinking that:

Step Time = 1000
Step Space = 2500
Direction Hold = 2500
Direction Setup = 1000

Any thoughts?

Wal.
