Re: Commands 65 and 66 seem hobbled.

I am now running on v4.1.15 and have posted elsewhere on that - Thank you. Every thing seems good and is signed off except commands 65/66 as already noted in this thread. My system does not use a library as such. All my commands are built by a parsing engine that can handle about half of the command...

[Solved] Re: Potential issue with Position Tuning in IONmotion

Ok - thanks for that alteration to include the check box. That is working nicely, and similar result on both motors now. Not sure about the results but that is what tuning is about and I am running bare shaft motors at present while I come to grips with things. I can get the motors running well with...

[Solved] Re: Issue with update v4.1.15 not taking.

Thank you - that version updated well.

The 'on release' tick box is nice now.
Not sure what 'Sync motors' does but only one motor operates at one time!
Did you do some work on graph scaling?
Seems more appropriate sizing somehow.
Thanks

[Solved] Issue with update v4.1.15 not taking.

I attempted to update RoboClaw with latest change from my laptop, it appears to do that ok but IONmotion will not then connect to RoboClaw. It tells me that I need to update the firmware. I click on the firmware update button again and the led's roll ok for a few seconds and then stop. I attempt to ...

[Solved] Commands 65, 66, 67 seem hobbled.

I am working on a simple movement command to move motor2 to a predetermined position from a home reset position. Configuration is all finished at this point and the motor was initially moved to 14462 qpps position using command 45 successfully. I wanted to try out command 66 to see if positioning to...

Re: Potential issue with Position Tuning in IONmotion

Ok thanks - Your point 1 -Good to know there is a difference between the two sliders at present - may be able to work with that for now and derive some benefit. Considering both my motors will end up with same or similar values this may work for me. Edit - yes motor 2 gives a much more manageable re...
