I found a configurator script for Linuxcnc 2.6 here:
www.probotix.com/wiki/index.php/PROBOTIX...inuxCNC_Configurator
Note that this will not work for Linuxcnc 2.8 or above but the script attached below will give an idea of the settings needed for what you have.
For example the MondoStep drivers.
search the file above for 'mondostep' and you will find this:
Code:
XYSCALE=$(expr "scale=4; 4*200*2/$I" | bc -l)
ZSCALE=$(expr "scale=4; 4*200*$ZTPI/$I" | bc -l)
which tells you that for x and y the scale should be 1600 steps per inch and for the z axis it's 800*TPI of the z leadscrew.
As for that you can then search for 'ztpi' and you will find this section from which you will glean more information about the max velocity:
Code:
case $ACME in
"ROTON" )
ZTPI=5
Z_MAXVEL=0.4
# 24IPM Z-Axis
;;
"HELIX" )
ZTPI=2
Z_MAXVEL=2
# 120IPM Z-Axis
;;
As for XY limits there is this section:
Code:
"V90MK2" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=20.25
Y_MAX_LIMIT=12.4
UPRIGHT="SHORT"
ZBEARINGS=2
;;
"GX2525" | "COMET" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=26.125
Y_MAX_LIMIT=25.1152
;;
"GX2550" | "METEOR" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=26.125
Y_MAX_LIMIT=52.2
;;
"GX3725" | "ASTEROID" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=37.25
Y_MAX_LIMIT=25.1152
;;
"GX3750" | "NEBULA" | "METEORXL" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=37.25
Y_MAX_LIMIT=52.2
;;
"GX5050" )
X_MAX_LIMIT=53.6
Y_MAX_LIMIT=51
UPRIGHT="TALL"
ZBEARINGS=4
Could be quite useful.
