 ====Selecting the Appropriate Pulse Width for your motor====
+{{youtube>lNStgX_STXk?large}}
 A common procedure required for proper motor operation is selecting the appropriate pulse width for the signal going from the controller to the step/servo motor on the CNC machine. A minimum pulse width is usually noted by the motor manufacturer so as to ensure that the motor can register the signals going to it from the controller (if the pulse width is lower, then the motor cannot "see" the impulse being sent from the controller to the machine).

       *The 12 μs corresponds to Setting 7 in the chart, thus the **Pulse width** value should be set to 7 in myCNC software.
-         *//NOTE: The first value in the **Pulse Width** line refers to the first four motor outputs (for example, the X+, X-, Y+ and Y- axes), while the second value refers to the other two motor outputs (for example, the vertical Z+ and Z- axis). These values are typically left to be the same unless different motors are connected to different motor outputs (for example, a stepper/servo combo).//
+      *The pulse width setup is now complete

+         *//NOTE: The 3 different values in the **Pulse Width** line refers to the different motor outputs, in order (for example, the X+, X-, Y+ and Y- axes), and the question of which ones to fill in depends on the motors (and the number of motors) you are using AS WELL AS your controller. These values are typically left to be the same unless different motors are connected to different motor outputs (for example, a stepper/servo combo).//
+           * for ЕТ6, ЕТ7 controllers (older ET7 versions) - **value 1** is for the first 4 motor outputs, **value 2** is for the next 2 motor outputs
+             * For ET9 controllers (modern ET7 revisions) - **value 1** is for the first 4 motor outputs, **value 2** is for the 5th motor output, **value 3** is for the 6th motor output. Read more about the ET9 [[mycnc:mycnc_et9|here]].
+           * for ЕТ10 (older ET10 revisions) - all channels are equal (use **only value 1**, values 2 and 3 are not used)
+             * For ET12 controllers (modern ET10 revisions) - **value 1** is for the first 4 motor outputs, **value 2** is for the 5th motor output, **value 3** is for the 6th motor output.
+           * for ЕТ15 - **value 1** is for the first 4 motor outputs, **value 2** is for the next 2 motor outputs, **value 3** is for the last 2 motor outputs
-    *The pulse width setup is now complete.
+  *For example, you'd use values 1 and 2 when using an ET6 or an ET7 controller:
