Attached is block diagram showing a spindle orient example. I also attached the hal netlist.PID, limit2, offset, … etc parameters values are not complete, you will need to figure them out as you experiment. 







Hello, could you tell me what OFFSET is used for in your configuration, I'd like to know more about it, on which machine do you use it?
Bravo SPUMCO for your tests on the C axis, it's really a very special configuration, thank you for sharing, I admire your perseverance!

 

@jpg-

What OFFSET are you referring to?

loadrt offset count= 1
addf offset.0.update-output servo-thread
addf offset.0.update-feedback servo-thread
setp offset.0.offset 1
net pid-orient-pos-cmd offset.0.out pid.1.command
...

What you posted is from @Benb's suggestion a few posts earlier, not part of my configuration.

Would you mind starting a new thread for tangential questions?
