I assume you can already interpret register reads/writes. Genesys_Frontend contains the setting of the analog frontend: AFE |Genesys_Frontend Register| member --------+---------------- 0x00 |.reg[0] 0x01 |.reg[1] 0x02 |.reg[2] 0x03 |.reg[3] 0x04 |(reset) 0x06 |.reg2[0] 0x08 |.reg2[1] 0x09 |.reg2[2] 0x20 |.offset[0] 0x21 |.offset[1] 0x22 |.offset[2] 0x24 |.sign[0] 0x25 |.sign[1] 0x26 |.sign[2] 0x28 |.gain[0] 0x29 |.gain[1] 0x2a |.gain[2] AFE Registers a written by setting register FEWDA(0x50) to the register number and then writing to registers FEWRDATA(0x3a,0x3b), so you will see these three register writes repeat in your log(Register numbers for gl646). Genesys_Motor is not used in the gl646 part, but we want to move over to parametrized slope generation not depending on hard-coded settings. Each Genesys_Motor_Slope contains a slope description for a specific stepping mode. The described slope should lead to the fastest final speed possible. The needed numbers can be directly derived from the slope tables(bulk writes of maximum 256/512 bytes, to be interpreted as usigned short. Each entry is the time between the corresponding steps). Take the maximum starting speed you can find, and the maximum ending speed(minimum value). The motor can be actuated in different step modes, so there will be slope tables using half steps and tables using full steps. Half step tables will contain values half as large as full step tables. Currently the values in Genesys_Motor are the time for a full step, even if used for half step mode. They will be devided accordingly. The 'g' entry can be set to 1, resulting in a linear acceleration. I see that 'minimum_steps' is misleading, it contains the number of steps used for the slope, which is more of an upper limit for the number of steps. In Genesys_Motor the 'base_ydpi' member is the motor resolution for full step mode. 'optical_ydpi' is the maximum stepping resolution possible. 'max_step_type' is the smallest step type: 0->full step, 1->half step, 2->quarter step. Actually there is redundant information here, as optical_ydpi=base_ydpi*2^max_step_type If you got your scanner to work and you are not afraid to damage it, you can try to finetune the acceleration slopes. I could speed them up for my scanner. But that will only improve low quality scan time and head moving home time. Regards, Pierre
