Kogna Reset output pin

Tom,
I might have missed the documentation regarding the functionality of the Kogna Reset pin output.
I assume it remains at logic level low until the Kogna is booted and ready to connect ?
The intention is to drive an ssr which is in series with the drives / enable hardware.
Regards,
Tim

Re: 8 axis KMotion CNC Screen & commercial help

Tom, I will hopefully post video tomorrow of the original machines we manufactured 17 years ago and have run most days. After more thinking and experimentation I think the standard 6 axis screen will work with the 6 linear axis and a C program called by an M code will move the 2 rotary axis. I assum...

8 axis KMotion CNC Screen & commercial help

Tom, We are thinking very seriously about using Kogna for a special purpose machine e we have an order for. I have used KFlop on our 5 axis machines and Kogna for testing gour servo and stepper drives. I have some knowledge of the Dynomotion system but I an supposed to be managing the project and no...

Re: KMotion CNC 5.3.3

Tom,
I have found the error i have made, confusing channels with axes.
Attached is the init file that jogs both directions.

Tom,
Attached init file 435f as used with KFlop.
Attached init file 533 as used with Kogna.
No Console messages displayed.
No Kinematics.txt file.

KMotion CNC 5.3.3

Kogna running KMotion CNC 5.3.3 Same init & mot files as runs on 435f no problem. Only running 1 axis as KFlop (which is now at a different location) is used to test drives and motors. G code program runs motor as expected. Problem is only 1 jog button works on initial KMotion launch, other directio...

RTCP Kinematics

Tom, Can you please check 4.35d Kmotion CNC kinematics .txt works with a varying pivot to chuck length entry. I have just run the attached program that should keep the tool tip at a constant zero position. If i change the pivot to chuck length entry in the kinematics.txt file attached it does not ma...

Open Loop Tuning

Tom, I thought i understood your reply to this question but i obvously do not. With the machine motion control issues i want to check the velocity response of the axes and go back to the beginning. I have attached the configuration for the Y axis. I have attached the step response configured how i t...

Re: 4.35d, Index ip, RTCP advice

Tom, The information below is from memory as I am now at home. The input gain in the init file is scaled so that the resolution is 1 micron. The linear axis feedback is the emulated quadrature output from the Stober direct drive lead screw drives. The rotary angular axis drives are harmonic drive ac...

Re: 4.35d, Index ip, RTCP advice

Tom,
I have only just got to use the machine late this evening.
I was worried about your comment of not using high enough velocities to test the machine.
I have attached motion plots for your comments please.
