Open Loop gantry following mode

[RafaelFalcaro]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to implement a "gantry following mode" control with the M1 as leader and M2 as follower, but both of them are in open loop (without encoders). I've parametrized the motors like that:

 

Motor[1].ServoCtrl = 1

 

Motor[2].ServoCtrl = 8

Motor[2].CmdMotor = 1

 

And i've got the "Gantry Follower" indication at M2 Status window, but when I command a movement like #1j^1000, just the M1 executes the movement.

 

Is there any other missing parameter for the motors?

Make sure both motors are "closed loop", enabled.

 

#1,2 j/

 

If 2 is open loop it won't move and won't automatically enable.

Thank you!

 

It worked!
