New Alpha Machinekit Trinamic SPI configurer Tool

[Michael Brown]

I have been wanting to experiment with the Trinamic SPI functionality for some time, and

in the past few mounts I have  been dabbeling with developing:

A setup to tune Trinamic driver parameters and utilize Trinamics Stall detection in Machinekit on the Mksocfpga

Using the Mesa (D)BSPI's and a ham component, together with a Gui for machinekit client.

For now only for the Trinamic drivers with a 20-bit config string:

Tested with:

TMC262_BOB60_V1_2

TMC2660_BOB_V1_2

(not yet the cheaper 40 bit register ones)

The setup:

Hal Component (I have been unable to get the (d)bspi's to work in instacomp) and (a python based) qtquickvcp hal config for machinekit client

DExx_Nano... or mesa card with (d)bspi's

A Trinamic SPI driver with 20-bit config registers.

Enables driving setting and testing Trinamic SPI parameters on 1 stepper, and is here:

It still needs some work to get/enable proper SG detection to function....

Best wishes

Ok 

SG detection now functions properly and full register and status indicator Documentation tooltips added.
Place a note if you need more getting started info :-)
