Thanks Moray, I added a 10k resistor between 5+ and the output. I am having stability issues, sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesnt. When I put a voltmeter on the output I see the voltage drops for 5V to 1.47V. Do you know the switching threshold of the KFLOP? I am guessing I am just too close...

Greetings, I am struggling to get an OMRON switch to work connecting it directly to the KFLOP. https://files.omron.eu/downloads/latest/datasheet/en/ee-sx47_67_slot-type_photomicrosensor_(non-modulated)_datasheet_en.pdf OMRON Hookup.png If I understand correctly I need to do the following: 1. Connect...

Thanks Tom, I am trying to use this on a corporate computer, many managed settings - I dont even have admin rights. I am most interested in modifying the USB chip so the standard drivers will work. Do you have any further details on how to do that? Maybe another thread where someone has done that? S...

Greetings, Trying to connect a new Windows 11 computer to an KFlop V1.3 with KMotion Version 5.3.6. The install seems to work, but has an error when I try to install the drivers. Whenever I try to update the driver it says it already has the latest one. Anyone else have this problem? Is the latest s...

Tom, I am using one laptop to control 5+ KFlop machines (Router, Grinder, Mill, 2 axis robot, etc). Each time I have to copy and paste the config files for each machine setup. It works.. but is a bit of a pain keeping everything straight. Would it be possible to streamline this somehow? Maybe a load...

I am using Solid Works for a commercial router at work. I had to pay for a post processor from Solidworks, was about $1,000 for a 3 axis machine. I am certain you could pay for a 5 axis post processor.

Greetings, I am looking at building a new large format 3D printer. Planning to run at least 4X4X4 footprint. I have a few questions: 1. Belt Drive - Does anyone have experience with these linear drivers? https://www.beltdrive.store/ This video explains them quite well, I've struggled with lead screw...

Tom,

Could you give me a bit more detail on the script command? Is that something that can be done from the command prompt? I have mainly worked with C programs on the KFlop side of things.

Hi Tom, I think I figured out how to make a separate application send the data from a text file. I just need to make a user program that will poll the axis position and write it to a text file every 0.1 seconds. It has to overwrite the existing data, not append. Does this look correct? #include "KMo...

Greetings,

I am using a trying to make a live serial or ethernet stream displaying the current position for the 0 Axis on my machine. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks,
