Nextion Multiple Stepper Control User's Guide |
Used to return to the prior screen. |
Configuration Screen |
Purpose: This is used to display or edit the configuration settings for the MaxSpeed and the Acceleration for the respective stepper motors. These settings for the speeds and acceleration values are used for the other screens with speed bars.
You can change the settings from here. It is also quite useful to ensure the settings in the Nextion display match those on the Teensy controller.
The upper rows control the lathe spindle in each screen, the lower rows control the Axis. Note that if you use different pieces of apparatus (such as a cross-slide, a spherical or a curvilinear apparatus, etc.) with the Z Axis settings, it will probably be desirable to reset the MaxSpd for some uses. Keep a record of different settings used for each apparatus.
This page will also display an estimated speed for the spindle when running at Max Speed.
Guidelines:
Min | Max | Safe Starting Point | Comments | |
Max Speed | 100 | 50000 | 10000 | 10000 = 10.4 RPM |
Acceleration | 100 | 50000 | 1000 |
Preliminary testing by the prototyping group for initial settings (assuming a 2" diameter workpiece) resulted in the following recommendations :
