Re: MPG and MUX definitions

I've hyjacked my own thread, I guess it doesn't matter much... Current question, I am looking at the AnTek PS-8N80N24R5 power supply to pair with the Snap Amp. The power supply has 5 outputs, 80V 24V and 5v, of which only the 5v is regulated. Am I likely to encounter problems using the unretulated 8...

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

So you now have an MPG with differential output and connecting to Kanalog JP2 A7+/- and B7+/- correct? Yes Is Kanalog JP9 connected to KFLOP JP5? Yes, but the latch on KFLOP JP5 had apparently been released and the connector was barely in the socket, strangely enough Kanalog JP1 worked on all chann...

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

I also just checked and Kanalog is checked in the executive program options.

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

I do have a Kanalog and attempting to route my MPG handle to A7+- and B7+-

I'm actually glad to hear you don't really support resolvers. Been down that rocky road and actually glad to eliminate that from my possibilities.

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

Also, will the kflop use resolver input instead of encoder to close a position loop?

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

Thanks Tom for your response and patience. I think I'm hearing you say I may be able to use the 200v motors I have, with less speed. On the assigning input channels to axis channel, I can assign 0-3 to any of the 3 axis I have active currently. When I set it up with 4-7, nothing. Looking at the Digi...

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

Thanks Tom, I did set my input to 7 when I had the encoder hooked to #7, Not shure what I did wrong but I'll try again. On the wiring, limit switches, I am in the early stages of this retrofit so all that stuff isn't installed yet, I always lay the components out on a table and get it running before...

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

Thanks of the help Tom, I received the converters and configured the cnc app to see encoder counts live. Can't seem to be able to move the encoder to input 7 in a 3 axis screen. I discovered all of my brushless amps have been contaminated with rat piss and all are faulty, note to self, rat proof EVE...

Re: MPG and MUX definitions

Thanks for the response Tom, My reason to want to move only one enxoder to JP6, the lathe I'm working on will eventually have 6 axis of coordinated movement using differential. I want to start the retro simple at first, two axis. I want to reserve every differential input I have for the other axis t...

MPG and MUX definitions

Hi all, I'm trying to interface a single ended encoder for an MPG handle. I understand that a "mux" statement must be used in my init.c file. 4 questions: 1 Can I modify the mux statement to include only one encoder multiplexed to one set of pins on jp6. I think I would need something like: // Mux e...
