G_code interpreter #define X_MAX_SPEED missing?
March 17, 2009 04:24PM
Hi,

I know this has come up before but I could not find a solution. I am sending G-Code to an Arduino with Processing and everything seems to be fine except I think the motors are running a bit slowly which is causing my machine to vibrate.

My set up is...
// define the parameters of our machine.
#define X_STEPS_PER_INCH 416.772354
#define X_STEPS_PER_MM 16.4083604
#define X_MOTOR_STEPS 400

etc... and I am using half step mode on the 1.2 driverboard.

Has anyone else come across or resolved this ? At the moment I can not figure out how to change the speed now that X_MAX_SPEED is missing.

Many thanks for your help.

Simon

The speed is conveyed in the g-code.

E.g.
G1 X3.948 Y25.365 Z-5.8 F960.0

F960.0 is the feed rate in mm / minute.
