tune stepper function

So 10500mm/min is my max. velocity ...
Now I wanted to know, whether things change with different accelerations.
Short answer: it does not.
No matter, whether I use 50mm/s², 500mm/s² or 5000mm/s² - max velocity does not change.
I tried to lower resolution / microsteps to see, whether I could break the limit, but it does not make any difference. Lower resolution fails beyond 10500mm/min too.

Maximum velocity can be dependent on acceleration with simple open loop step motor drives
since they lose torque very quickly with increasing RPM. Depending on inertial load, they can stall
during acceleration at higher velocities since the have insufficient torque.

I suspect you are not using simple open loop step drives

... with simple open loop step motor drives

Hm, isn't that true for every stepper system?

Well, I do. On my cheap chinese 3D-printer ...
... but I can't take that for serious cnc machines. They are more like crap
- and yes, they loose steps very easily.

My plans are to integrate linuxcnc into closed loop. But for that I have to finish electronics, which is not my skil.

Different motor/driver, similar problem:
.

Timings are set according driver specs.

What causes the braking ramp slowing down to fast, so that a slow movement is necessary.
And where is the speed for that slow motion configured?
Slow-motion speed is 12.7°/s

After a quick grep I found that numbers in halfile at a line like this: analogy by chance or related values?

@cmorley
Chris, would it be possible, to link sampling of halscope to run-button of axis-tune dialog?
Would be nice to be able to examine recorded data after stopping motor without any hurry.

I finally got into roll/stop function of the scope :ohmy:

So I could grab a more detailled picture of what is happening:
.


Any hints, how I could find out, why the motor does not follow commanded velocity?

Probably because you have no headroom in the stepgen velocity
(that is your step timings bound the maximum velocity so the PID does bad things)

So the white curve is NOT (?) what goes out to stepper driver?
What do I need to add to scope to see the output of PID?
