Spindle Pulses Lost in System

The counts are all negative, that is they get more negative when the spindle is turning. Same for the RPM. I have an entry in my postgui that flips it:

setp scale.0.gain 60
setp lowpass.0.gain 0.010000
net spindle-velocity-feedback-rps               => lowpass.0.in
net spindle-fb-filtered-rps      lowpass.0.out  => abs.0.in
net spindle-fb-filtered-abs-rps  abs.0.out      => scale.0.in
net spindle-fb-filtered-abs-rpm  scale.0.out    => gmoccapy.spindle_feedback_bar

Check that the counts are going up (the count direction depends on the state of the 'B' encoder input)

I moved wires around on my BOB so that the encoders are connected to the proper inputs on the Mesa 7i92.. I made some changes to the .HAL file. I got several things working:

1) The spindle speed shows up on my display, and matches what I see on my separate DRO, even at 2,000 RPM.

2) Based on Tommylight's earlier question, I figured out why my HalScope was running at 250Hz (double click on samples button, and changed divisor from 4 to 1. That change made the missed pulses go away completely, and validated my cheap Chinese BOB was not glitching.This is the first time I've ever seen 180 pulses per revolution on the HalScope.

3) I used a stopwatch to time 10 seconds, and watched hm2_7i92.0.encoder.00.count. I had calculated I should get 1440 pulses in 10 seconds at 48 rpm, and that's almost exactly what the difference was in the pulse counts before and after. That means that all the pulses are all being seen! I figured out later that I also could just rotate the chuck by hand, and see 180 counts per revolution.

The only remaining problem I have is that something is mis-configured in my .HAL. When I try to thread, the cutter moves in to position, and is either not receiving the index pulse to start or the 180 pulses per revolution or both, and is not starting to thread.

Ok once again its a regional thing.

Silicon was given the name Silicon in 1817 Thomas Thomson.

In 1787, Antoine Lavoisier suspected that silica might be an oxide of a fundamental chemical element,[18] but the chemical affinity of silicon for oxygen is high enough that he had no means to reduce the oxide and isolate the element.[19] After an attempt to isolate silicon in 1808, Sir Humphry Davy proposed the name "silicium" for silicon, from the Latin silex, silicis for flint, and adding the "-ium" ending because he believed it to be a metal.[20] Most other languages use transliterated forms of Davy's name, sometimes adapted to local phonology (e.g. German Silizium, Turkish silisyum, Catalan silici, Armenian Սիլիցիում or Silitzioum). A few others use instead a calque of the Latin root (e.g. Russian кремний, from кремень "flint"; Greek πυρίτιο from πυρ "fire"; Finnish pii from piikivi "flint", Czech křemík from křemen "quartz", "flint").

I didn't have a programmer at hand and found a very cheap option xilinx virtual cable.
It flashes perfectly. You just need to solder another contact to the ground on the board.
TDI = 4, TDO = 5, TCK = 6, TMS = 7, GND
Author's page where you can download gitee.com/xiaowuzxc/ESP32-XVC
"Over-the-air" programming over ESP32-C3
For IMPACT ise configuration JTAG spartan 6 xc6slx16
Can also configure for programming in flash memory in impact
Your host can find out from any program for scanning the ip environment.On my phone WOM WIFI
For example IMPACT
xilinx_xvc host=host=192.168.0.103:2542 disableversioncheck=true

Warning: Spoiler!

If there is no ISE Xilinx there is a standalone programmer openFPGALoader
For openFPGALoader configuration spartan 6 xc6slx16
Write-flash JTAG to SPI bridge -f

sudo openFPGALoader -c xvc-client --ip <your ip> --port 2542 --fpga-part xc6slx16 -f <your bit file>

Write-sram JTAG -m
sudo openFPGALoader -c xvc-client --ip <your ip> --port 2542 --fpga-part xc6slx16 -m <your bit file>

For example

sudo openFPGALoader -c xvc-client --ip 192.168.0.103 --port 2542 --fpga-part xc6slx16 -f rv901t_4out__3stepgen_2enc_1pwm.bit

The pins joint.0.motor-pos-cmd and joint.0.motor-pos-fb do not exist, the ones that do appear are join.0.motor-pos-cmd and join.0.motor-pos.fb, are those the ones I have to check with halscope? I have never used halscope, I will have to learn how to use it.

You would need to look at the hal and ini files to see how those constants are used
(some may not even be used, as there's normally a lot of "boilerplate" in hal/ini files)

1. There's no need to load firmware in the hal file as 5I25s store firmware permanently on the card

2. Any bit shift error needs to be corrected in the format string (that's the purpose of the format string)

3. You need the encoder specific information to create a format string that matches your encoder

Thanks, that makes sense to me. I think for now it makes sense to keep the PID values in voltage. However, I'm still confused on the difference between Scale and Analog Scale Max. Should the number be 10 for both if the PID is in voltage rather than velocity.
