Hi
in this moment i am playing with one old Fanuc serial encoder. But i can't found any useful example for config.
Only one here but not working.
forum.linuxcnc.org/10-advanced-configura...20-and-fanuc-encoder
I put this line
loadrt hm2_eth board_ip="10.10.10.2" config="fanuc_chan_0=AA64 num_encoders=1 num_pwmgens=0 num_stepgens=5 sserial_port_0=20xxxx"
in hal and try to find any connection pins. second big question. Do i have connect to encoder or sserial input? Could someone give me light in this yellow / black box.
I use a mesa 7i76e and this have one encoder and one sserial input.
Thanks Christian

The Fanuc serial encoder uses a RS-422 interface so requires
a differential TX and RX pair, The serial expansion port on the
7I76E could be used for this but it would require custom firmware

Yes, the firmware for Mesa cards are opensource and free. But what I think he means by custom is that a firmware that supports it doesn't exist (yet) and will have to be created/configured for your specific hardware.
