Yours conclusions about Paragon2?
Posted by Railroad on Sunday, January 3, 2010 3:32 PM
Do you have any conclusions about Paragon2? Like, are they reliable, smooth runners , easy programming etc. What is your opinion about them. I have one sw7 for 2 days now and i can't say that i am impressed with it.I like the sound of it, but it does run not as good as i expected.Also when i run it with 28 speedsteps it accelerates and decelerates different than in 128 speedsteps.At 28 steps it seems that cv3 and 4 have no effect and it change speed immediately.I have difficulties to make run as i want.

Mine runs great. 128 speed steps is supposed to accelerate and decelerate differently.  For start speed you don't use CV 3 and 4, but  CV2 which is starting voltage.
