CAN command glossary?
Hi there,
I have been part of developing a CAN-FD enabled machine pendant at work for something unrelated to a 3d printer, but seems like it would be cool if it could also be attach to my home duet 3 setup. Which leads to two questions 1) does the current duet setup allow for a pendant be attached to the CAN bus to send commands to a duet 3 6HC which it could execute across expansion and tool boards and if so 2) is there a syntax/command library out there that? -
RE: Manual Pulse Generator
Can we mark that as two....
Thanks David more a curiosity than anything else at this point.

Manual Pulse Generator
Is it possible to configure a Duet 2 to use a manual pulse generator (quadrature encoder) as an axis jogging input?

RE: 6th-order jerk-controlled motion planning
I don't usually post, just lurk and read because it is always interesting.
However, this thread is a mirror of where the machine tool industry found itself in the 80's. Trajectory planning, ball screw compensation tables, etc. were the new and bleeding edge, and the same arguments were had. Long story short, we take these things for granted now. While @deckingman is 100% correct (and I really like/appreciate his systematic approach), he has exposed the next hiccup in the "need for speed". This also happened in the machining world which led to advances in tool materials and geometry, and in particular cutting strategy.
Someone, on another forum, at this moment could be figuring out how to extrude the volume required to travel at warp speed, which would put the ball back in motion controls court.
I also get the argument about build quality, but, while everyone wants a Dixie, most have Haas'es and it is a bit unrealistic to expect otherwise, particularly in the DIY space.
Also we are up against the reality that one very bright man who seems to live a 36 hour day is creating and maintaining the software we are using. Trajectory planning will eventually be a requirement to any 3d printer firmware, but right now, for practical reasons, it will fall into the "nice to have" category.
