Pulse Train HAT for Raspberry Pi Changing Speed on the Fly

Pulse Train HAT changing speed on the fly example using Instant Commands

With this example, we show how to use the PTHAT being used to control the speed of a Closed Loop Servo motor and Closed Loop Stepper Motor.

This also shows the resolution of the pulse train enables precision speed, down below 1 RPM

Within the application you first connect to your Raspberry Pi serial port by clicking the Connect button.

Now you can click on the Start button and the motor will spin up to the speed you have set by sending a Set Axis Command and a Start Axis Command.
