rigid tapping needs reversal of spindle so backlash matters.
If i have encoder on spindle shaft backlash
will be problem?
How many lines encoder needed for rigid tapping?

Oh thanks a lot, your code example was very helpful. I just started learning python and my level so far is “monkey see, monkey do” Without a concrete example it's hard for me to understand exactly how to do it. Now I can find my mistake, I tried it for one slider, the values are changed and saved.

tristate_bit and tristate_float are the names of the hal components,
but tristate-bit.n.xxxx and tristate-float.N.xxxx are the names of the function
and hal pins that the component exports.

tristate_bit works on bits where tristate_float works on floating point numbers.

I looked at the sim config an edited a mesa config to add the new TP, but it does
show major acceleration spikes (~500K)  lasting 1 servo period. I needed to set
large  following error limits  to avoid the spike triggering a following error.

Note that this is not hardware related but may have a relation to scaling so I can try again
by modifying the sim config to make sure everything else remains the same.
