I have looked through many old posts, but have not found a specific reference to cv mode used in conjunction with a smooth stepper. I am using granite devices to run an old motion master I was planning to use mach3 to drive that, but I need to be able to count faster than Mach3 will. the question is is there a way to get the acceleration curves out except when required for inertial reasons? and will this also work with the smooth stepper?
several years back I had a setup that was able to do this with a double buffered driver, but as yet I haven't approached a fully smooth toolpath . I am switching encoders because I don't think the old fanucs on my machine are quite fast enough, they tend to do funny things at higher speeds.
