If you are using Axis then you could reduce the font size in the ini file.
Code:
# the font for the Axis GUI, if not specified 'sans 10' will be used
# valid font sizes are from 9 to 15
FONT = sans 11
EDIT: I forgot to mention that if you use Axis and want it to start maximised then you can set that in the ini file as well:
Code:
# the window size for the Axis GUI, 0 = minimum size to suit font, 1 = maximized
MAXIMISED = 1
Q2. In the ini file re.
[AXIS_Z]
# set to double the value in the corresponding joint
MAX_VELOCITY = 175 Do you mean set this to double
# set to double the value in the corresponding joint
MAX_ACCELERATION = 1500
[JOINT_1]
AXIS = Z
MAX_VELOCITY = 175 or this
MAX_ACCELERATION = 1500
STEPGEN_MAX_VEL = 200 or this
STEPGEN_MAX_ACC = 2500
As a lot of general ini files have this in it
# The values below should be 25% larger than MAX_VELOCITY and MAX_ACCELERATION
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 250
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 1875
So I am a bit confused !
It is referring to the first two with the identical name.
Here are the second two from the docs (note that these are only used if you are using steppers):
Code:
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 21.0 - Acceleration limit for the step generator. This should be 1% to 10% larger than the joint MAX_ACCELERATION. This value improves the tuning of stepgen’s "position loop". If you have added backlash compensation to an joint then this should be 1.5 to 2 times greater than MAX_ACCELERATION.
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 1.4 - Older configuration files have a velocity limit for the step generator as well. If specified, it should also be 1% to 10% larger than the joint MAX_VELOCITY. Subsequent testing has shown that use of STEPGEN_MAXVEL does not improve the tuning of stepgen’s position loop.
So you could safely remove STEPGEN_MAXVEL and the only reason to change STEPGEN_MAXVEL would be if you used the BACKLASH setting.
