Guys, Now, I'll really making progress. I've finally succeeded in getting my Sherline mill to run one of the programs from the Mach II wizard, although I have...
Seams like many Laptops only put out some 3 volts on the LPT ports instead of the 5 volts you normally find. Some Drivers have problems responding to the lower...

Jan, In spite of the fact that my Sherline is now working with the desktop, I'd still like to be able to use the laptop because it's much easier to shlep...

Hi, I've done a brilliantly stupid thing and I'm looking for some input. Any help will be greatly appreacited. A while back I set up a Sherline mill with...
Curious what the 28v supply is actually putting out...check with an accurate VOM. Maybe you are reaching over voltage of the controller. Is it a brute or ...
Hi, My guess is that you are getting a resonance problem with your new motors. Changing the mode from series to parallel will change the resonance point of the...
... new ... resonance ... Run ... WIRING ... Hmm... There are actually 250 oz.in. rated at 2A series and 4ish parallel (seems like it was 4.3 or some such but...
... I should have mentioned that part too... It's a switching power supply, granted. But rated at like 14 amps. Shows right at 28V with a meter. Even looked...
Hi, Alot of your speed and torque depends on the inductance of your motors and the voltage you are using to drive them. When you have the motor wired for...
G'Day all The XS4430U/16S-4 Unipolar board I have is working very well. I have my limit switches in series (normally closed) and separate circuits for x, y, z...
Hello Friends, How may I calculate the appropriate capacitor capacity to build a linear power supply like show in files section ? For example for a 24 volts ac...
I was going to recommend the power supply white paper at geckodrive.com but I don't see it on the web page. I think they are working on the site at the...
Rey: My power supply is essentially just an 18V Transformer, Bridge Rectifier and six 4700uF 50V Capacitors in parallel (26,400uF). Works like a charm no load...
OOPS!.... that should be 28,200uF total (4700x6) ahhhh.... just another senior moment I guess. Cletus ... __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC...
Hi, In the next set of prototype boards I get made, I will probably have a single axis board (but don't hold your breath waiting for a single axis to be in...
Hi All, Here is something that caught my eye: http://www.weblogalot.com/Archive/2004/09/23/11 then search for Xylotex Someone was asking for others to clone...
Thanks Jeff. I got an old line folling machine that I had converted to Stepper/Plasma for a friend. It is constructed using 4" box tube, and is very robust....
I once had a thriving web business. Unfortunately similar scumbag-types cloned my stuff and, made the slices of the pie way too thin for me. I no longer have a...
Why not just ask for a 3 axis driver with a list of functions? Why ask for a clone? Anyone who knows about the support that Xylotex offers won't be buying...
Hi, ... ask for a clone? I wondered the same thing. Or just say *like* the Xylotex drive. To blatently solicit bids on the internet to make a clone! Oh well. ...
Hi, Any "rough" idea would be really "rough". At this point, I would recommend gwetting a single from pmdx. It is also a 3977 based drive, with a few extra...
To Jeff and Group, I was very surprised to see someone wanting to clone(?) the Xylotex board and not knowing how to do it. I'm an electronic engineer and could...
