Hi Kurt,
You should not need to use KMotion.exe
in normal operation.
Everything should be initialized by
the Init C Program executed from
KMotionCNC.
You may be missing a call in the Init
program to enable your slave
axis. It should be something like:
EnableAxisDest(xx,0);
Where xx is the Axis Channel of the
axis.
To turn on bit 16 you would add:
SetBitDirection(16,1); // set bit 16
as an output
SetBit(16); // set bit 16 on
to the Init Program.
HTH
Regards
TK
