to 2 UHU servo boards to drive a quilting machine of my design.A third servo drives the needle down-up according to the prepended code to do the stitching
and also to to do the "Must do" stitches at the cusp points of the pattern.
When the pattern is completed the machine is returned to it's starting point.
I had written all my previous programs in QB4.5 for ease of proving any concept I wanted to evaluate.
Because I wanted to do an more up market presentation I thought I would re-create my previous work using VB 6.0!
Now here was the challenge!

Cheers Graham
I See.. It sounds like 2 halves of a display panel I Built. How far does the Head move in 10 clocks.? and what minimum pulse length do the clocks need to be.?

(I Wrote my first in Qbasic Too Lol), Well I Had too. after translating Some Bingo Random Number Code from ZX Spectrum Basic To QBasic on A 386 PC and Experiencing the Processing Speed Difference It Was A Must. However I Tried VB.Net And found it 'UNEnglish'..
