Hi, I have a couple of https://www.parkermotion.com/manuals/Digiplan/ViX-IH_UG_7-03.pdf which I am trying to tune. The PID and various smoothing parameters can be adjusted over serial, but the drives are quite old and have no provision for plotting actual vs commanded position.
I'd like to get these servos tuned very tightly but have no idea how to evaluate their performance.
Do I just tape a pen to the end-effector and run the charts on paper? There is technically a velocity analog-out pin on the drives but I'd have to take apart the servo cables to get at it with an oscilloscope.
