Working on the PLC of side of the NC homing button. How does the PLC know which axis the NC is set to jog and is trying to home? The example program just homez three motors as opposed to reading the active axis and using a switch to act on that axis and its associated motor.

This might be mm/minute. I can see a setting for the NC configuration that controls this. Is there a setting in the IDE that also sets this? They seem to not be matched as when I set a Jog speed in NC, the value sent to the PLC (which I check with the IDE Motor Control Commision) is a per minute value while it is expecting a /sec value. So I say 1 mm/sec in NC and it writes .016 to the PLC but the PLC is also in mm/sec for the jog speed to it ends up moving in the NC at .016 mm/sec.

Just getting started with programming a system and trying to make sure I understand how the parameters are determined. My motor axis units seem to be in mm as X10 moves the motor to 10 mm but the speed of say f20 corresponds to like .32 mm/second which seems like an odd number when the encoder counts are 10000 /mm. Servo time is ~ 4.5 khz.

You need to update the various pages on the website. For example, the Contact Support webpage still shows @deltatau.com: http://www.deltatau.com/DT_TechnicalSupport/ContactSupport.aspx and also the offices list: http://www.deltatau.com/DT_About/aboutCorporateOffices.aspx Website still outdated.

I have a CK3M and was wondering if it could run C programs to control USB peripherals with have Linux support as part of the PLC system.
