− | **Added Position feed-forward gain parameter | + | **Added Position feed-forward gain parameter [[PFF]] - helps to reduce overshoot in position control mode. In previous firmware, this value was fixed to 100%. |
**[[Argon EXT connector|Simulated encoder output from internal EXT connector]] (6 pin header) - useful with resolver systems where external [[controller]] needs encoder count | **[[Argon EXT connector|Simulated encoder output from internal EXT connector]] (6 pin header) - useful with resolver systems where external [[controller]] needs encoder count | ||
**Homing with index pulse search is now possible with resolver feedback device (simulated index pulse at certain resolver angle(s)) | **Homing with index pulse search is now possible with resolver feedback device (simulated index pulse at certain resolver angle(s)) | ||

***calculation of setpoint commands via SM bus renewed (drive setpoint is a sum of phyiscal setpoint (step/dir, pwm, analog etc) and the setpoint from SM host (instant and buffered commands). If SM host sets absolute setpoint, then phyiscal counter (incremental types onle) are reset to zero.) | ***calculation of setpoint commands via SM bus renewed (drive setpoint is a sum of phyiscal setpoint (step/dir, pwm, analog etc) and the setpoint from SM host (instant and buffered commands).

After trying the new firmware and Granity, please give us feedback by writing to ''tero.k (at) granitedevices.fi''. Set email subject to ''ARGON 2.0 BETA'' so the feedback messages are easier to identify. | After trying the new firmware and Granity, please give us feedback by writing to ''tero.k (at) granitedevices.fi''.
