hello again,
@PCW i did connection with 74hc148 chip.
all to all there is some progress and i can see increment is changing.
issue i'm struggling with is that increments up to 0,5mm works well.
above 0,5mm gives a movement (on PC screen and LCD) of 0,6mm and no matter which one selected 1,2,5 or 10mm
also attaching hal. sorry it is a bit messy due to i'm trying to get all that together.
may be you have some idea???

Did you verify that jog-scale-xyz.out is giving the correct jog increment?

yeah all aligned,
jog-scale xyz.out = mpg-scale-xyz = axis.x.jog.scale (same for Y and Z)
jog-scale xyz.out = mpg-scale-xyz = axis.x.jog.scale (same for Y and Z)

if the scale numbers and counts are correct, I'm not sure what's going on
It might be worth testing with just setp in halcmd to eliminate upstream issues:
(first comment out the hal connections to axis jog pins to allow manual setting them)
halcmd -fk
halcmd: setp axis.x.jog-scale 10
halcmd: setp axis.x.jog-enable true
halcmd: setp axis.x.jog-count 1 (assuming it was 0 at the start)
This works on my setup though that's 10 (imaginary) inches!

hmm, strange thing.
will take a closer look tomorrow, it's almost midnight here.
setp for jog scale was my starting point, i put that originally in hal equal 1mm and was ok.
could be something simple laying on the top

Is it possible the increment setting is not stable?
( does the 74HC148 have a pullup resistor added to each input? )

all inputs pulled to +3.3v pin from 7i73 via 1kohm, 74hc also powered by that.
7i73 inputs are rather stable essentially all looks good up to 0,5mm scale.
it could be some limitation or something else explaining why i can't go over 0,6mm
will also look for any relation in ini file tomorrow.

Can you halshow motions pins when you jog?
(jog-scale, jog-enable,jog-counts)

ehm, probably suggestion to not to things during night have some sense.
was just about to show how it behaves and found all working as charm
have no idea why it didn't work yesterday
hal file above is accurate and i didn't change anything.
@PCW thank you so much!!
i'm half way there, next steps to think about keyboard connection and buttons assignment and next is improve information showed on LCD
