Hello.
Again, thanks for the extra clarification. Of course, the motor DS doesn't provide the torque to PPS curves, so it will be trial and error. But, since you state that you cannot tolerate out of position movement, you will *have* to prove 2 limit switches to keep things safe, or mechanical stops for what you are moving. The limit switches can be used for absolute positioning or just for calibrating the number of steps to reach full movement (with the absolute function of all-stop)
I already have code for much of this, but I need to port it to Arduino. Do we get to determine the wiring?
1st request:
Could you post the part number of the motor? This is to determine the minimum/maximum pulse rates.
Are there any limitations against going full circle? My applications have typically been limited in motion range, so I have typically used between 2 and three switches at the motion limits. Because of microstepping, it is possible there will be more that 200 pulses required to go full circle, and, depending on the load, you may have to implement acceleration/deceleration pattern which this controller does not do.
Original:
This is a very simple job. Is this all there is to it?
You do also realize the controller must be properly configured?
And also, what are the full motor specs?
