I get it, the test function in the Rotary Setup tool should just move the axis X number of pulses in one direction and back again the same amount with X being the value entered in the Steps per Rotation field, regardless of the Object Diameter value entered.
However this is not the case, at least on my software version of 1.3.01 with a Ruida controller on an OMTech MF1624-55, Y axis set to 2000 Pulse/Rev and their chuck rotary axis with a 22.5mm pulley on the stepper and a 45mm pulley on the chuck for a 2:1 ratio giving me 4000 Plus/Rev on the chuck.
When I have any value below 62mm entered in the Object Diameter field and hit the Test button, the chuck will rotate 360 degrees and back again with 4000 entered in the Steps per Rotation field. Which is exactly as one would expect with my setup.
As soon as there is a value above 62mm entered in the Object Diameter field, using the Test function will rotate the chuck axis less and less degrees of rotation the higher the Object Diameter value is. If it is set to 124mm, the axis will only rotate about 180 degrees.
I do have my chuck operating correctly now, only because I finally realized that if there is a value larger than 62mm in the Object Diameter field, it will skew the Test function results.
I’m not trying to be difficult about including the Object Diameter in this issue as that is the truly the bug I have found in the Test function within the Rotary Setup tool. I appreciate you trying to understand the issue I was having and what I found. I do think this should be mentioned to someone who could look into a possible issue with the Test function if there is a way to do so and I would be more then willing to work with them if needed.
