MACH3 Maximum Step Pulse rate

[Ken_Shea]

I have spent some time reading and searching so as not to waste anyones time but I cannot find this spec? I thought I had the Mach3 user documents on my computor but I guess not.

I am trying to calculate what encoder I can use and need this value.

Thank You
Ken

I dont know if this is what you meant, but from my understanding this is the speed that Mach3 can drive each individual axis at this speed ( Depending on your computers specs)
I dont know it this translates into pulses per second.( I presume so)

That looks to be what I was looking for Benny.

Thanks

Ken, if you want (or need) to run at 45Khz, you should have at least a 2Ghz PC. Art recommends using the 25Khz whenever possible, and not using the faster speeds (35,45) uness you need to.

Thanks Gerry,
