Ok, we have the machine basically functioning...
But, the units of movement are not understood.
Ie, what does the DRO show? mm or inches in
the normal mode with the "Lock DRO" unchecked
in the Configure panel.
The system is set to "mm" in the "Select Native Units"
I have checked tried checking "Lock DRO" to force it
to show "mm" in the DRO, however when measuring
the movement it is not in mm but closer to inches.
The machine is a Omiocnc 60/40 with 5mm ball screws.
We are using Gecko 203's, and those by them selves are
confussing. The title for them on Gecko's site say "native
resolution 10 uStep (2000 PPR), but a side note says
"Need to run your G203V in full step, half step, five microstep or ten microstep?
Click here to view the G901X, which will turn your G203V into a G213V!"
Thus, I am confussed as to will the plane Gecko 203 run at 2000PPR
or does it need the G901X to do this?
I have the steppers set to 10000 steps per millimeter currently.
Hope this is enough info to get something back in the way of an
answer.
Best Regards,
Preston
