Below is code to perform a real-time hardware feedhold. "Stop" might be implimented by disabling your axes. We don't currently have a mechanism for

Tom, Is there a snippet of code that already exists to have the commands performed by the buttons on the Kmotioncnc (specifically "stop", "feed hold", and

Andrew, How about turning on an output bit in your KFlop Reset/Init program. That way after Mach3 comes up and the User pushes Reset the relay comes on. For

Hi Tom Thanks. What I am wanting to do is have an enable circuit for my servos and spindles. I have a relay connected to "Switch/Enable All" and I want to

Andrew, Regarding the charge pump: it's not really necessary. One of the main reasons for using KFlop is to avoid real-time requirements of the PC,

Hi Tom Thanks for your efforts, it looks like the new plug-in works fine. I will be working on it again a little later, so I will let you know how it goes.

We now have KFlops back in stock Sorry for the delay. Tom Kerekes DynoMotion, Inc.

Hi Andrew, Sorry for the delay we were looking into it. Mach3 only allows "pin" numbers < 128, so that is a problem for Kanalog I/O bits that are greater

Hi Tom I am still having trouble getting my inputs to work in Mach3. I can see the bits change (Bit 136) on the KMotion software, and I have configured mach3

HiTom Did as you suggested and put a 1K pull up, and at this stage it is looking like it has fixed the problem. So thanks heaps for your help. I will have

Andrew, Looks like the problem is that the opto is not completely turning off. If possible, try adding something like a 1~2 K ohm pull up resistor from the pin

Hi Did as you said: #2 = 3.155V #4 = 0.175V Andrew

Tom Kerekes — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 07:37:01 GMT

Hmmm. If the input impedence is really 700 ohms then it should only take ~7ma to pull it to ground and KFlop is rated for 12ma. I can't tell if KFlop isn't

Hi Tom Sorry, a VERY bad description there on my part. The outputs from the Kflop with no connection to the servo drives is 5v measured between the 5v

Re: KFlop/KAnalog Wiring

Tom Kerekes — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 06:53:34 GMT

Andrew, Very odd. Without your cable plugged in the KFlop outputs should be either floating or pulled low and definately 4.0v or less. Measuring 5V would
