3x different analog outputs in gcode? was created by santy
Hello.
7i77d and other analog cards allow for multiple analog outputs, which can be used to interface with servomotors or simply to control a potentiometer type of device (VFD spindle speed, or others).
My intention is to control XYZ with Step/DIR from some typical board, and have 7i77D or other analog card output 3 different signals to regulate a few devices.
The GCode for regulating spindle speed would be "S1000". How could i regulate "multiple" spindle speeds if this is my intention, through gcode?
Are there any publicly available libraries for me to read to get more in-depth information on this?
Thank you!

You could either use the analog out motion feature (and gcodes M67,M68):
man motion
or multiple spindles. Recent versions of LinuxCNC support multiple spindles:
