spindle out issue 7i76 SOLVED
I see no voltage on pin 2 when I do m3 S16000. hal config show spindle enabled and 16000 for rpm.
Below are my hal and ini.

Your hal file is missing the net connections from the signals:
spindle-vel-cmd-rpm
and
spindle-enable
to the appropriate hardware pins
I connected spindle-vel-cmd-rpm to hm2_7i92.0.7i76.0.0.spinout
and
spindle -enable to hm2_7i92.0.7i76.0.0.spinena
and no matter what speed I send it it sends out 4.8volts spinout

I am having issue and I dont understand the spindle.
Is their a 7i76 config somewhere I can look at? I thought stepconf set it all up.
Please Log in or Create an account to join the conversation.
that pncconf uses to enable installing the spindle connections
And yes, the reason you have a constant ~5V output is likely that the scale is wrong
Normally you would set minlim to 0 and maxlim and scale to the spindle speed at full voltage
EDIT: I just tried this with pncconf and it does setup the nets and scaling.
Pretty sure you need to fill out the "7I76-Analog Output TB4" tab before
pncconf will create the connections and scaling setp's
Heres what pncconf creates:
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-minlim [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_MIN_LIMIT
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-maxlim [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_MAX_LIMIT
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-scalemax [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_SCALE

pncconf normally sets this up, I suspect you may have left out some spindle setting
that pncconf uses to enable installing the spindle connections
And yes, the reason you have a constant ~5V output is likely that the scale is wrong
Normally you would set minlim to 0 and maxlim and scale to the spindle speed at full voltage
EDIT: I just tried this with pncconf and it does setup the nets and scaling.
Pretty sure you need to fill out the "7I76-Analog Output TB4" tab before
pncconf will create the connections and scaling setp's
Heres what pncconf creates:
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-minlim [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_MIN_LIMIT
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-maxlim [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_MAX_LIMIT
setp hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout-scalemax [SPINDLE_9]OUTPUT_SCALE
net spindle-output => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinout
net spindle-enable => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spinena
net spindle-ccw => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.spindir
I fixed it by hand. I will look into setting that with pncconf. I know I missed that section I guess.
Anyway, its working, thanks.
