I have a B&C PCL738B control card for stepping motors, but I would
need a card
that allows to modify in real time (at least 5-10 times per second) the
speed of the motor given a fixed acceleration (the acceleration would
be set once in a while). I need to control two stepping motors to
drive a small mobile platform which has a PC 486 on board, the if this
card is for ISA bus, that would be a plus. Maybe there is somebody who
has modified the board that I have so that it is possible to control
the motors in real time (the board accepts a movement command in which
you set the speed, acceleration and number of steps, but you cannot
modify the command unless you stop the motor).
Please e-mail to the following address, since I'm not getting all the
messages of this group. Replying to this address is fine since I have
forwarding on this site. Thanks for the help.
