New machine, lathe with encoder was created by CaspianCmonster
Hi everyone I am trying to get a new build (and first build for that matter) up and running.
the machine is a lathe with 2.6.9 running with a Mesa 5i25 + 7i76 card, a 60 slot encoder with one deep slot for the index. The encoder seems to work from what I can figure out with the hal monitor although I think the index is perhaps backwards (on 59/60ths of the time rather than on 1/60th) I cant seem to get it to invert.
I have done the setup so far in Pncconf but am getting tired of that interface for making small changes.
I am trying to test it by feeding a little G code with a G76 line that should use encoder position if I understand things a little.
any ideas? thanks
I should mention it will respond as expected to normal G code

If you need to invert the index signal change "hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.index-invert 0" to "hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.index-invert 1".
# ---Encoder feedback signals/setup---
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.counter-mode 1
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.filter 1
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.index-invert 0
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.index-mask 0
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.index-mask-invert 0
setp hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.scale [SPINDLE_9]ENCODER_SCALE
# ---Encoder feedback signals/setup---
