Does the Gerbil have size limitations?

#1 · March 3, 2018, 12:22 pm

This is might be the wrong place for this, but, does the Gerbil setup have any size limitations for the x/y controls? Thinking of gutting my k40 to make room for larger cut area (but retain the existing motors and electricals) and want to make sure I am not going to cause myself any headaches on the controller side.

thoughts?

thanks

Hi Nick

The gerbil board has no size limitations. You can program the X and Y axis sizes via $ commands. Read out the settings via "$$" in cncjs or any other gcode sender.
