Pokeys_homecomp EncoderSearch / Encoder Arm Topic: Pos_Fb Following errors

Hi Dominik,

I think position, scale and reset would be nice to have.

Hey Dominik,

tried it out, the .scale and .position works.
But the .reset dosn´t...
 
(I assume if I hit reset, the .count will be set to 0?)

EDIT:
I think it would be good, if the reset is be done at start of Linuxcnc...
If the last .count valvue was for example 10, at a restart of Linuxcnc it is 10, too...
So for my example to use it for feed-override, it is set at 110% at start of linuxcnc...


Best regards
Marcel

Hi Marcel,

sorry for my late reply. Now i also have my encoder wheel wired to my pokeys57CNC.

i think i found the problem.
(reset at startup is added also)

did you setup this encoder for jog-wheel operation or as position feedback?

Hey Dominik,

thank you for the new file, this works as it should.

I set up the encoder for feed- and rapid-override.
had first a poti, but like the encoder-style with push-button for reset more...

Best regards
Marcel

G'day Dominik (or anyone else who knows their way around pokeys on linuxCNC).

I've tried following the steps on page one of this thread, but keep running into errors at the make step. I have attached an error log to this post. Does anyone have and idea what I am doing wrong?

Thanks, Matt

there are updated instructions, which can be found on page 10.

which usually work as described.
forum.linuxcnc.org/24-hal-components/298...rnet?start=90#162953

it includes Reading of digital and analog inputs.
(my component is extended to also read use kbd48CNC, and basic functionality of PulseEngine, external Relays or OpenCollector outs - but as it is doing this it creates to many Pins if it is just added to an existing HAL-file)
