Re: Xbox Controller with Acorn CNC control Video by Franco
I've been using this for a while now and, so far, no problems. It works pretty good.

Re: Splines and gears
You may want to check out Fusion360. There are some nice features in there to generate gears. Then, you can just post for the Centroid control.
I know where you can download a nice post, if you're interested.

Re: Acorn 3d model
Nice. Fusion360? Are you sharing the file? If so, I know a few guys (myself included) that would like that.

Re: encoder suitability
Good point.
You can also change the sign (positive or negative) for the number of encoder pulses in the CNC wizard.
Encoders are cool...

Re: Ricky Nelson said it best.
I feel sorry for that dude. I can't imagine him being able to successfully overcome any kind of technical challenges with an attitude like that.

Re: How To Connect PEND and ALM Outputs on HBS860H Hybrid Stepper Drives
Hi Marty - that's the downside of the FastToBuy people. Unlike DMM, they don't have much support geared towards an English Speaking audience. I had to surf the web to find the English software.
I suppose it wouldn't hurt to reach out to them once again - I'll drop them a line this weekend.

Re: How To Connect PEND and ALM Outputs on HBS860H Hybrid Stepper Drives
Here is a link to the software:

I have to install both the Chinese and the English versions. English doesn't seem to work without the Chinese version installed, as well.

Re: How To Connect PEND and ALM Outputs on HBS860H Hybrid Stepper Drives
Thanks for your help with this. I was able to get things to work with NO alarm outputs wired in parallel to a single Acorn input. Here's the video:
