Hello there.
As far as my understanding of EMC goes, it will work with anything that uses a step and direction pulse.
Of course, the real key seems to be in the configuration files of the EMC software. ie. how many steps per inch and what the sense of the step and direction pulses are.
Granted I say this without actually having implemented a cnc machine yet, but I'll be working on that again come march.
I, like you, have commited to getting this to work. I'm using EMC with the BDI installtion (worked like a champ!) and I'm using PMDX's break out board and stepper motor drivers.
SO far, I have x and y axis electro/mechanicals working,using the test modes of the stepper driver boards. I need to finish the z axis. Then it's on to integrating in the EMC software. I don't anticipate having huge issues with it, though.
Rick.
PS. WHen I went to Xylotex' web stie, they show that they use step and direction, hence my comments. It SHOULD just motly plug and play (plus of mius some configuration file diddling.)  |
