#4877, "RE: Finally got MSII to control stock IAC stepper" In response to In response to 6
If I may ask though, Corbin, why do you have the algorithm as always on?
Megamanual: IAC Stepper Moving Only: Powers the stepper only when changes in pintle position are requested. This is the most common type, it holds its position if not powered, and is difficult to turn by hand. Because the stepper/pintle assembly typically has a worm gear, if the pintle doesn't move easily when you try to screw it in or out - DO NOT FORCE IT - you could break it.
IAC Stepper Always On: Powers the stepper at all times. Required if your stepper 'free wheels' when you spin its pintle un-powered with your hand.
15-minute IAC: Operates the IAC is always on for 15 minutes, then switches to 'moving only'. This is sometimes helpful if your IAC operation is erratic.
If that is accurate, my IAC at least would be moving only. And when I did have it connected and set as always on, it didnt move but it did get so hot I almost couldnt hold on to it to disconnect it from the harness.
