Dynomotion Forum

Thank you!

Have a good one.

Thanks, Tom. Any other functional or performance differences between rev 1.1 and 1.3? My initial reason for asking was because I was considering grabbing an older rev 1.1 I saw up for sale and possibly installing it on an old emco mill I just got. For the asking price, I am not sure it is worth play...

I was wondering if there is a list/documentation of Dynomotion hardware versions/revisions and their relative changes. I looked but failed to find them. While it would be good to know for all components, I have a need to know about the kflop v1.1 to v1.3. I did see in some other posts there is a fil...

My original build uses Snapamp encoder inputs to keep the Kanalog free in case I wanted to add scales or any other wacky features. I don't think that is going to be a reality for this machine so moving them to Kanalog sounds like the thing to do. For my better understanding... 120 ohm termination me...

Alright, I will keep it all here in this thread. I prefer using your forum as well. For reference, this is the cnczone thread I started prior with my initial system spec's noted : https://www.cnczone.com/forums/dynomotion-kflop-kanalog/314376-pid-servo-tuning-snapamp-chicken-egg-variables.html I hav...

I tried using my tone/wire tracer to detect noise. It works pretty good as a rough indicator. It is part of an old "fox and hound" set by Triplett. They still make a newer version. I did not use the tone generator "fox", only the "hound" receiver as shown, since the tone is the noise in then lines. ...

Tom, thank you for all the notes. As always, I very much appreciate your high level of support. Since I have numerous contenders for source of noise with the older portion of my system wiring and components (built around 1994) and the subpar electric service at my location, my intent here was to loo...

My gantry router has intermittent, random, seemingly impossible to repeat, but at this point totally expected noise issues feeding into the encoders. While I had identified several red flags in the wiring and setup, and mostly rectified them years ago with pretty darn good results, the remaining ite...

Thank you for taking a look. Past tests worked well with before and beyond the map range. I tested it under its development with varying scenarios and it seemed good. I have not tested it lately since I am mapping the full length. My MaxFollowingError=1000 30,000 encoder steps/inch Max position erro...

Tom,

An update on these Metrol limit switches...

The LED lights up plenty bright without adding any additional parallel resistors. The onboard series resistors on Kanalog do the trick without any extra mess!

The switches also seem well under the 5 micron repeatability for now.

Cheers!
