Hi,


I ended up with a K2 CNC KG-2525HD router with a DynoMotion KFLOP 1.2 controller.

The KFLOP card is piggy-backed onto what appears to be a proprietary K2 driver board 

(revision 3.5 - no PN visible).


The 4.33d versions of the tools were installed on the accompanying computer.  I open

the Kmotion/console and can execute a 'Version' command and get a response, so it

appears that the computer and controller are happily conversing.   However, when I

go to KmotionCNC and try and jog any axis, I get no motion.


This router was previously integrated into a manufacturing cell in an R&D environment,

so should be in good shape.   Currently the VFD driving the spindle is disconnected, 

but would not think that would be an issue for jogging the axis.


This may be entirely a K2 issue, but I am having difficulty tracking down any documentation

for that.   I would have thought that there might be more application-specific documentation

on the KFLOP controllers.   Seems to be mostly at a level a user would not be digging in

to.


Any pointers how to proceed appreciated.


Thanks for your help.


Regards,


--Dan

Hi Tom,

Thanks - that thread has a lot of tidbots that look helpful.  I am coming from a Mach3 
background - surprised how different the K2 setup is.
