    Re: Unexpected Move

    Sounds like an error in your post processor, to me. What are you using for cam and what post?

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    Followup-

    Pokeys is on the shelf next to the Proma (and for sale!). I canceled my order for the Pokeys version of the Proma. Delivery was 30 days out and I was disenchanted with Pokeys tech...

    Re: Hello all. How is your pandemic going?

    I'm not rich enough to stay home and not work, I'm not poor enough to stay home and not work....

    So I really couldn't care less about this, I'm hosed.

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    Two things have happened-

    1) I ordered the Pokeys version of the Proma. It should be the best possible combo for the P57 board and software, and I like the optical communication.

    2) I have...

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    I think you are operating your machines at a much more stringent pace than I am, or was prior to upgrade. I was pretty happy to see 65ipm, but the haven't had time to tune the new unit and see what...

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    Thanks Craig.

    I've had this Proma for a while and it does a great job, just not used it with this board yet. The p57 has great motion control, its very smooth with THC deactivated.

    I may...

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    It's just so dang frustrating. Got the THC to work intermittently, then out of nowhere the probing routine does a -Z plunge instead of a retract. Where the hell did that come from? It's the...

    Re: Pokeys57cnc and THC in mach3 or 4

    I've been pouring effort into getting this to work but no luck at all. Sometimes the THC functions, albeit wildly out of control but the z axis does move, and other times it doesn't do crap. Pokeys...

    Re: Calmotion USB.

    Thanks, I'll have to give this a try. Got so tired of power cycling it I considered putting a power button with NC contacts next to the usb port.

    Got mine up and running yesterday. P57cnc/THC150.

    I used the ADC connector, wires 7-10, to the Proma. 10 (gnd) went to common, the others stuck in wherever. These 3 are p57 pins 43-45. You...

    Re: Fusion 360 multple setups

    FWIW-
    I'd suggest an M0 over an M1 in this case. Since the setup MUST be changed, I'd hard code the temp stop and forgo the possible mess of forgetting that the Opt Stop was off.
