And 6 is only in 64 bit format? Nope, found x86 version. 6.1.4 Works
some better, but scaleing and location of text marking signals is still
way out of position with the line drawn gfx.
Someplace, there is a register or terminal to convert it from 10 volt to
5 volt, but I can't find it. Time to find a mesa spinx1 and insert it
into the signal path I guess. Makes a 0-10 volt analog signal out of the
average of the pwm.
My control runs at 98% PWM when I ask it for 24 thousand rpms, which is
exactly correct. but feed that as a 0-5 volt signal, it only runs at
about 5400 rpms, or nominally 24% of what its told. The spinx1 will need
5 wires in the cable. More fun and games...
