I don't see the motor continue to move after I stop the jog buttons. They are both set at 800 pulses/revolution, same setting used in PncConf wizard. The thing is both motors behave the same when plugged into their programmer software. The recent motor I bought was about maybe 6 months after the first, so they don't come from the same batch... perhaps there has been some minor changes made in between that time? Maybe I should contact Teknic to see what they say.
If they are the same motor maybe swap them over and see what happens. That should isolate whether it is hardware or software.
Personally I'd say its time to get acquainted with hal and ini files and compare the ini file settings for the two joints. I could never get any thing done in pncconf so did all of my config to my 7i76e by hand
Yes, they are same exact model. I had swapped them before and just tried again, the slow one always spin slower than the fast one no matter which axis I plugged it into. So I'm suspecting it has something to do with the motor, its internal firmware or something along those lines.
Maybe I should just completely go through PncConf wizard and finish it. Then see if anything changes. I don't know.
Yes I have set them up using their MSP software. Using the same speed and acceleration settings, both motors run smooth and quiet. I doubt that the motors are the problem.
When I have them hooked up to the Mesa 7i76 I can see that the Z axis motor's measured speed is about 1/10 that of the X axis.
Teknic thinks it's the controller causing this behavior. I'm going to complete the PncConf wizard for now. Who knows maybe it's only an issue when I'm in the PncConf mode.
