hi Guys
Today I from my machine with parport
the custom.hal transferred to my new machine ..
Unfortunately work spindle and feed no longer override.
Signals A and B are to see and change the HAL-Meter
In encoder.1.counts unfortunately does not change.
What can not be true because ??
Yours sincerely Dirk

I see no where you have the feed/spindle override counts enabled:
halui.feed-override.count-enable true
While you have confirmed that encoder counts do actually change when the MPG is turned,
You should confirm more things:
Does halui.feed-override.value change ?
is halui.feed-override.count-enable true?
If you start the linuxcnc status program in axis (under MACHINE heading) and you move the encoder to you see
anything change color or value?
I'm thinking it's the count enable.

Hello
halui.spindle-override.count-enable = TRUE
halui.spindle-override.value = 1 turn no change in
encoder.1.phase-A alternates between true and false
encoder.1.phase-B alternates between true and false
Can anything have to do with the area parport ??
Because here only servo is and no longer base
halui.spindle-override.count-enable = TRUE
halui.spindle-override.value = 1 turn no change in

ah yes. I'm sorry I miss read your post.
Yes i think you will need to add a base thread to use the parport as an encoder counter.
The servo thread is too slow to catch the changes.

Actually, the servo-thread works fine. For a 100ppr MPG you can twirl it at 2.5 revs per second before there is a problem, and you dont actually notice missed-counts with an MPG.
I don't see the encoder HAL function being added to a thread anywhere. I suspect that its the problem.

Hello
can you please tell me what should I do exactly ?
did not specially written to my old HAL .
thank you.

Hello
Have added to HAL these lines.
There are counts counted the display will change but if I turn a little faster then losing or stops.
If the servo-thread too slow ??
addf encoder.update-counters servo-thread
addf encoder.capture-position servo-thread

Hello
Hello
Have now tried a base-thread in the HAL to load.
That can not.
Is it even possible ??
Wanted later out my A-axis running through the parport.
Is that even possible yet ??

Yes, you can have a base-thread with a Mesa-card system. You need to add it to the "loadrt motmod" line in HAL:
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man9/motion.9.html
In practice that is probably an INI file change.
You are using Mesa hardware, why not use that for the A axis and for the MPGs? What hardware are you using?

Remember If you are trying to use a base thread with a Mesa card. If you want to read or write to I/O on the Mesa card in the base thread you have to move the read/write addf(s) for the Mesa card to the base thread as well, and there may be limits to how fast those can be done.
