Good thing I use Axis exclusively... the rest can bugger off! :laugh:

I do regret supporting them both, it makes for a lot of extra work. I should have stuck with Axis...

I find gmoccapy to be extremely difficult to navigate.

At any rate, I think I found out why Tormach never answered my email about how they clear programs.

tormach.com/machines/plasma-tables.html

It seems we are in direct competition now :laugh:

In all seriousness, I wonder if they are using @PCW's THCAD. It seems they use his hardware (in a modified to suite Tormach's needs) everywhere else, it wouldnt surprise me. Also, I wonder what they are doing for ohmic sensing.

Seems a bit pricey though.

Looks nice.

It will be neat to watch all it can do. And compare it to my home built table :evil: :silly: :woohoo:

I guess I should have had a peep first, and answer my own questions:
Code:
#Torch voltage setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.00.counter-mode true setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.00.scale 1 setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.00.filter false net rawtorchv hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.00.velocity scale.0.in #Reading actual voltage #5v calculation (half of the hv resistors shorted out) #0v=96khz 5v=933khz #0v to 5v = 837khz #Gain = 5v/837000 hz =.00000597371/hz #offset = .00000597371/hz * 96000hz * -1 = -.573476 # x50 gain = 0.0002986857 # x50 offset = -28.6738 setp scale.0.gain 0.0002986857 setp scale.0.offset -28.6738 net torchvolt scale.0.out #filter voltage slightly net torchvolt torchV-lowpass.in setp torchV-lowpass.gain .1

I find it interesting that they use the same calibration across all tables.

Which actually reminds me of a question. My voltage fluctuates a bit at idle, bounces around 0-3v. Should I apply a lowpass filter? I did tool around with the lowpass filter a bit, and it seems when I got it to stop bouncing around, it did nothing during a cut :laugh:

At any rate, maybe it's not necessary.
