    Higgrobot,

    This is a general forum for all CNC Teknix products. I would be happy answer as many questions as you have, I will check with the web master regarding the information on our Mini drives to see what the problem is.

    Take Care

    Dave

    Mini Drivers

    The three mini drivers i ordered last year have arrived and they did not come with any circuit diagram or documentation..eek. I could wire them up and experiment but im not too sure about a few things. What do i do with the "Ebl" when using 3 controllers, should i wire them together? What do the three trimpots do?

    Their webpage does'nt offer the mini drivers for sale anymore but
    Grace from CNCTeknix supplied this info for the three trimpots:

    Proportional: This is the amount of power, relative to the error, that the drive will output. The analogy here is a comparison to the accelerator in a car, if you are travelling at 60Km/H and you want to travel at 80Km/H, the P controls how much more the accelerator needs to be pushed to get the right speed. If the P is set too low it will accelerate very slowly, too high and it will likely speed up too quickly and overshoot 80Km/H, causing it to have to decelerate again. This can cause the drive to oscillate, and, if set too high, will cause ever increasing oscillations until the drive trips out.

    Integral: This is often called the steady state error. If there is a small error, not enough to cause the P control to correct, but present for a period of time, the I adds up all these errors over a time period and causes the drive to adjust slightly to reduce this error.

    Derivative: This is the adjustment for the ‘rate of change’ error, such as when a sudden acceleration or deceleration is called for, or the load quickly changes. It works by adding or subtracting power to assist the correction for any sudden changes. Back to the car analogy, if the car was to suddenly reach an incline and the speed starts to decrease it looks at how fast the car is slowing down and adds a burst of power to correct for it. As it acts faster than the proportional control it is also helpful in decreasing the oscillations caused by too much proportional control.
