Does nobody really use Probe Basic Lathe?

It doesn't matter whether it's mm/rev or inch/rev, the same effect should occur with both if it's normal that you can't use a potentiometer.

I'd like your help in organizing my project.

i managed to recover a KUKA Kr15 robot but without the control bay.
and i'd like to get my hands on it and learn all about it. “Denavit-Hartenberg (DH) parameters”, ‘genserkins’ ...

After calling KUKA, they told me that only their KRC1 with old electronics was compatible with the KR15-1.

So I'd like to go with linuxcnc.

my first question is about the harware:

after several searches, i could see that the motors were siemens servos with a kuka label. the encoders seem to be cos/sin.

As for motor control, I'm a bit confused, on the motor nameplate you can see 1.5A / Uistr 146V / 6000/9000tr. they are in 3-phase AC.

after a long search on drivers, i find many with 200V -400V. I see that all the drivers have an encoder input. Is it wiser to connect the encoders to the drivers or to the mesa card? Are there AC drivers without encoder feedback?

-can a mesa card read cos/sin encoders? or do you need a card between the encoder and the mesa card?

 

Congrats to that, the debugger is a big big help, for some problems.
As you found out, the variable updates when the program is paused, or stepping.

Where did you read that in the manual?

Do you mean the image is not the full tab width in Axis?

I installed Pathpirate in 2.9.2 and when updating to 2.10.whatever, PathPilot removed it. I will reinstall Pathpirate but it would be nice to not to have to every time PP updates.
