I thought so but not sure how that maps to A+ and B+

In case anyone needs it, here is the current link to the product:
aliexpress.ru/item/1005007328938566.html

And also attached the archive with documentation I found:
www.gzyanwei.com/upload/Files/2022/11/21/Ecat-IO_V2.zip

This board has one input for the encoder and two inputs for counters. The first input will definitely be occupied by the spindle. Do you think it is possible to use the counter input for the MPG? 

Hi Russell,
you just have to pay attention to the HDMI pins and the 1.8V output on BANK3 (you can use it for 3.3V input)

the capacitors on the HDMI output can be remove, but than, you can not use the HDMI-Port anymore on the TanNano9k board.

if you need more pins, you can use shiftregister's, bud not for Highspeed-Encoder or pwm generation (including dir-pins), the shiftregs are very fast but produce some jitter.

@cornholio
thanks for testing, sounds good

Thanks! Looks like I found it.

Odd, it works for me CATIO-A
 

not perfect, but maybe a starting-point for other developer

Hey guys awesome work so far, I would like to make a PCB for the Tang Nano 9K to plug into, basically a pin for pin copy of meister's Tango board, but with provision for a few extra bits that I'd like. Mainly provision for closed loop control of brushed DC servos.
My plan is to basically copy and paste the line receiver circuitry of my existing servo drives that I've been using for years and use that for the encoder feedback.
My question is which remaining pins on the Tang Nano are best suited for this task ? If possible I'd like a minimum of 5 axis so thats 10 inputs, 15 if we bring a Z pulse for homing/spindle/threading per axis. I realise there's only so many pins to go around but I'd drop a couple of standard inputs off the board if it meant it would all fit.
Also I'd be happy to post the layout once its finished/working and tested for others to use, but be warned I am going to use through hole parts as much as possible, I am old, have bad eyesight and have found out the hard way that through hole PCB's are more resilient to harsh climates, temperatures/humidity etc than PCB's with tiny surface mount parts.

Cheers.
Russell.

However, best is to send just the coordinates to a servo drive. That saves the pc a huge ammount of
calculation time over 9 scurve axis.

I was under the impression that most of this could be done outside of the realtime thread. The filleting algorithm for example, couldn't that run before actual gcode execution?

I think this would be a good I/O module but you would need to create the generic xml which is not hard There may be an xml file here somewhere.

Could you please write the name and model? There is no product at the link.

You need el5102 module with two encoder interfaces, one for spindle and one for handwheel AB phase

Yes, I can assemble everything I need using Beckhoff modules, but it will be very expensive.

Good day to all.

Until now we only offered DHL express shipping at our store.
It is fast, secure, reliable and unfortunately expensive.

Starting today we offer DHL parcel for most of Europe that should make our store more appealing for small orders where the transport price is a factor.
Transport is, of course, slower, but should reach all European countries in 4 to 8 days.

We have the largest stock of Mesa in Europe and we will soon have more products.
If you have a suggestion of hardware that you would like to be available, let us know as we are expanding our market.
 

I tried to make order to Czech republic, but there is DHL express only....

Try this:

modify these line in '/bin/gmoccapy':

 

To this:
Note, standard unlock code is "123", which is displayed in the tool tip text when the mouse hovers over the settings button so you might want to change it to something else. To do that open the .pref file in the machine config folder and find the line 'unlock_code':
 

 

Hi Norbert,
The machine only has a standard keyboard. I am not sure how I would do that?
