MM2001 Interface Details
Posté : sam. déc. 30, 2006 12:17 am
Hi,
i want to connect my home-grown stepper motor board (based on L297/L298) to Jedicut. It seems to me that the best way is to implement the behaviour of a MM2001 board. What i cannot see from the MM2001 documentation is: does it take a motor step on the low to high or on the high low transition of the clock (step) pulses? And are the timer pulses (on pin 10) only required for the programmed heating of the wire or also for stepping the motors?
One additional question: i don't hear about end switches in MM2001 or Jedicut. How do you drive the mechanics to a well defined starting (reference) position? Where is Jedicut's "zero" position: upper left position, lower right position?
Thanks for your support.
