PICStep Drives a Widgitmaster Router
Finally after many years I have helped put together a decent CNC machine. My mate Tyson recently purchased a Widgitmaster Midi router, and I supplied the PICSteps and some motors. After much fiddling about we have a really decent router (albeit a little smaller than we'd like, but that'll be fixed on the next machine :)
The NEW website
Wow a new website!
I've put up all the existing content for PICStep and PICservo. I'm still working on the XYZ content, and also adding more fun stuff as I go. Hopefully you're enjoying the face lift.
That's all for now!
OMG Fromorbit.com has had an update!
Hi all,
It's been a wee while and a lot has happened since the last update to the old site. Anyway, I will be adding all the old content in the next few days, and I'll be posting more regularly than before.
Anyway, please bare with me! Watch this space!
Thanks,
Alan.
PICStep Firmware V2.0 Released
Release Firmware V2.0 today.
I've made two versions, one with a motor current timer and the other without. Also the LMD18245 bug has been worked-around and now the motor should be silky smooth in both directions. The bug was a pesky thing to figure out, but now the curves for both directions are correct and the direction switch is fixed to deal with a silicon bug in the LMD18245.
