It should be possible.

I have found the RS232-RS485 adapter, so if I get some time, I'll wire it up, and hope the KFlop 3.3V RS232 is good enough for the adapter.
Failing that, I'll need to clear some bench space to get a Kanalog setup.

The computer should have no effect, as all it's doing is sending the speed command to the KFlop, at which point the KFlop handles everything. Operationally nothing should change, provided you're still using the same C files, and have KMotionCNC setup the same (if you've not seen it, there is a guide...

I've had one of those Waveshare modules sat on my bench for a while, but still not got around to setting it up (Modbus is one of the major things I want to get coded into my software, but I've had to take a bit of break from that for now to get some studying done). I've used Modbus in the past with ...

Just a quick update, before I start on the next major feature additions. This update is mostly Machine Config GUI tweaks so things re-size far more gracefully, such as the connector TreeView expands, and all the related controls move. Limit Switch functionality has now been added. I've also added an...

So I've been working on this whenever I get some time, and have now added the next few bits of functionality, and fixed a significant bug in the previous version. 250117_MachineConfigTree.png + Any pins used by channels, are now highlighted with a grey background in the Tree View. + You can now add ...

When in KMotion with no board connected, you can't select Kogna in the Options menu, KFlop always stays selected.
Is this because I don't have a board connected?

In which case, it's not ideal for testing code in a different computer from the machine.

Not really a bug, but I figured this is the best place for it. The Step/Dir generator value table values (on https://dynomotion.com/Help/StepAndDirection/StepAndDirKogna.htm ) are wrong for channels 8-11 for CW/CCW and Differential mode. You have them the same as Step/Dir mode (192-195), whereas I m...

That button disabling functionality is hard coded in to KMotionCNC, so can't be replicated from a C program. You can prevent running of a program by having a C program that executes when Cycle Start is pressed, that checks that it's OK to run, or stops G-code execution if not OK to run. I think ther...

I think we're all getting a bit confused here. I had assumed that that last init file, you were working each axis individually for testing purposes. So starting from the last init file you posted. You've swapped motors, so we know that the motors themselves are good. As Tom has highlighted, if you h...

In your configuration file, ch3 is still slaved to ch1, which you probably want to disable for testing with the motors off the machine. For testing, set ch3->MasterAxis=-1 (note the -). If that doesn't work, try swapping the channels in DefineCoordSystem, to 0,3,2,1, as that will eliminate any issue...
