Hi everyone,
I have the following system:
PCI-7330
UMI-7764
four P7000 series drivers
four Nema 23 stepper motors, each with an encoder
In max, I can operate each moter fine while in open-loop mode, but as soon as I try to operate any of the motors in closed-loop mode I get both the 'following error occured' and 'motor off(axix is killed) errors if I try to move more than 200 steps.
For instance, If I reset position to zero, and set the target to 2000 steps, I get the 'following error' and the motor stops at position 190. However, If I reset to zero, set the target to 200 steps, it will complete with no errors (even though the stopped position says 100 instead of 200).
Can anybody help me figure out what is causing the errors?

Paul:
Have you configured your encoders in MAX?
