Thor, or should that be Zeus?

Looking good, try tuning manually - adjust the I & D values, there are documents online about doing this but its also in the CS-LABS booklet. The delay between reverse is a homing error - its not settling at at the zero point fast enough you should see the numbers very slowly retuning to zero and then the green LED comes on in the tuning page. Tweak the values and you should see following error drop and the cycle time rise - in the end it will be going bang-bang-bang one way then instantly the other. You need fast homing (return to zero) and not a slow creep.

The auto-tune is pretty pants really, always tune with the final load, rough tuning is fine for tests but when finished and assembled tune again with all load attached.

Thanks. Ye, its dwelling too long before it finds 0 / Green LED. Playing with the values will improved that. Ill sort that out once its mounted properly and I have limit switches to stop a run away / something going wrong.

The Panasonic drives also offer a lot of tuning. I am not sure how the CS Labs and Panasonic tuning will go exist. Ill likely set the drive to be on a mild auto tune and then use the CS Labs for the overall tuning.

Very curious too to understand how the setup can deal with inertia / whiplash. I refer to demos where they move something that has a ball on a stick and tune the drive that basically shows no 'pendulum' effect when the device stops and starts in different directions.
