Hi Frank,
As Art has stated it is a feed back problem. If the servo has no feed back
it will just run away when the power is applied. Make sure you have the
encoders wired properly and supply voltage to the encoder. If the motor runs
full speed you are not getting any signal at all. If the motor kind of lumps
along then you are missing one or the may be backwards.
Best,

Subject: [mach1mach2cnc] Servos won't stop running - Help Please
I have every thing hooked up and running on the bench. The servo
motors run continuously? When the program tells the motor to move it
stops turning and the moves in spurts when it should be moving all
the time.
I am using HP 500 line yielding 2000 counts/rev encoders.
I am using a Mach2 board and software.
Geckos 320's
Is there something that needs adjustment on the geckos or in the
mach2 software? need setup tips.
Thanks
Frank
