IDEA_drive

What is this for

This is a lib used to work with the IDEA Drives from Haydon Kerk. Great for quick prototyping of stepper drives.

Drive Link Protocol Doc

What is included?

Currently a python lib that only requires the pyserial lib. Simply import it and call what functions are needed.

Also included is a minimum protocol use in C. Simply pass in buffer, and write that buffer to a serial or rs485 device.

Is this complete?

Nope, there are a lot of features the IDEA drives have that I didn't use and aren't in the lib.

Another item is some of the queries need format out of the response to return important info. Example: query the current position and there will be a prefix and suffix wrapped around the position info.
