    Can you tune the PID controller on HSS86 closed loop stepper driver?

    I see some youtube videos and one post here showing how it is possible to tune the PID with an RS232 cable on a HBS86 driver, but what about a HSS86? Is that possible? What is the difference between the 2 drivers?

    Drivers I'm looking at here, HSS86 seems to be the only type easily available here.

    It looks like the HSS 86 is a hybrid stepper, and the HBS is a brushless servo. The HSS seems to be a 2 phase driver (stepper), the HBS is a 3 phase driver (brushless)

    Ah OK, any thoughts if it's possible to access the HSS86 PID tuning?

    This video would indiate the HBS is a stepper.. I think a lot of Chinese sellers are adding 'servo' into the name of closed loop steppers

    From what I can work out - mostly from an old post on here I think the HSS86 HBS86 are stepper drivers by different manufacturers

    That's an interesting video. Learned a bit there.

    According to the Leadshine web page, the PID is factory adjusted for the mating motor, but I suspect that by using the configuration software in the video, you could tune the PID.

    Yes, the problem is in the UK the sellers have HSS86 and I don't know if it's possible to tune those...

    For my reference this was from an old thread but I don't think the users posted anything else on this forum but one guy got some answers from the manufacturer

    yes, I bought the JMC steppers with 2HSS86H directly from the factory. I have tested them only briefly. They seem to be good so far. Controller parameters are adjustable via an additional device (HISU) that came together with the motors. I will let you know as soon as I will test them in real load conditions.
    I have decided for the JMC because the JSS driver (HSS86) parameters are not adjustable.

    This video is a guy from 2016 using the chinese leadshine program on a leadshine HBS507
