Hi, Tom:
I have ordered the necessary level shifters and a solder breadboard, so I am on my way. I am still a bit short on all the anticipated/inputs, so I will adding
a microprocessor to Mux these...

Hi, Tom:

Thanks for steadying my decision making while walking a tightrope.

So further review of the Panasonic manual shows I can use AB quadrature also, so, that is what I will use for both...

Hi, Tom:

I am doing some further inventory on signal needs and available ports. I find that I forgot 2 limit circuits, Estop, and edge testing.
Because JP6 on the Kanalog board has available...

<Will consider after other suggestion fail. I am concerned my experience level with tuning the servos is non existent and hope that tuning the servos using the drivers is satisfactory.>

Back from...

Hi Tom.
Reading the forum and then the manual, I see that the scan rate of 180uS for each Konnect board is much too show.
Yes, the servo drivers have opto isolation built in. Because I now...

Is it possible to direct the Step/Dir output channel to the Opto Outputs on the Konnect board and not use multiplexed JP4, JP6 or JP5 on the KFlop board? (I have attached a Kanalog board to JP7, and...

Hi, Tom:
Just to be clear in step #5 they were not checked as Outputs but then you checked them to be Outputs. Correct?
<That is correct, the Outputs IO34 and IO35 were not checked when I first...

Hi, Tom:
J2 jumper between pins 1 and 2 is set.
1-Flashed version - Check.
2-Cycle power, reboot- Check.
3-do nothing - Check.
4-Restart Kmotion.exe -Check.
5-Digital IO Screen... IO34 and IO35...

Hi, Tom:

IO34 and IO35 are configured as outputs.

I do not see my scope change when I toggle IO34 or IO35. IO34 stays fixed at 2.2 volts and IO35 stays at 0.0 volts.

I am running version...

Hi, Tom:
OK, I will go back to JP6 and follow your instructions.
Thanks.

Hi, Tom:
In order to back up a bit, I have connect a single Konnect board, using the supplied 3" ribbon cable to JP6, and ran KonnetEnable.c. Same error "COMM ERROR AUX1 0 (signature not A5)".

Hi Tom,
Yes, that is correct. In the past hour, I have been using a logic analyzer to view activity on the JP6 port, again without the Konnect boards plugged in. No toggling of either the clock or...

I have been in design mode for a DIY cnc router for more two years and am now testing circuitry for the KFlop and Konnect boards. When initializing the Konnect boards to set up the virtual bits, I...
