Hi gang.
I am writing to try and find out a little info on servo drivers.
How can I drive servos from my computer and what type of drive can I
use?
What is the difference betwen an Amplifier and a "normal" drive?
Can I control a "servo amplifier" with a step/dir controller and if
so how? ( I have purchased a drive from Rutex to try out. )
I also have a couple of AMC PWM Servo Amps (12A8E) and would also
like to know if I can use these in a simple setup. I have seen
servos controlled by step/dir controllers on one site.
A lot of info would be very helpful on this subject as there isn't
much on the list explaining the numerous types of Servo Controllers.
warm regards
Richard.
