Pokeys_homecomp EncoderSearch / Encoder Arm Topic: Pos_Fb Following errors

Well...thats clear, i know how to show them. Of i understand, pokeys.0.alive should be blinking?

Noting blinking and no respons of the button.

I whas searching though some photos, saw that the pokeys.comp nstalled i think.

Last lines says; collet2: error: ld returned 1 exit status.

"alive" doesn't blink, it just shows true or false (yellow is true, an odd colour choice I agree)

It looks like the install failed because the driver isn't installed.
Can you try re-compiling the driver and show us the result of that command?

I did what you said and it works!!!! I see the dot change collor if i push the button!! Can't see changes on the analog ports if i turn the potentiometer but they are active though.

Thank you for your support!!!

Now search to define pin to do lets say nc start.

After re-installing my linuxcnc my machine is working.
Unfortunately i had to do the pokeys installation all over....

Yesterday i did that in 1 hour or so. Now in halshow its working again. I can see the pins changing if i push a specific button.

Now i struggle with getting it working in linuxcnc.

I got the setp pokeys.0.devSerial ***** in costom.hal and Loadusr -W pokeys in my_mill.hal with the first pin i want to test.

Still...i got nothing. not even in Halshow in linuxcnc.

I am confused, first you say it is working in halshow, then you say it isn't ?

Yes.

If i do:

And in a 2nd terminal

I can see the pins and see them active if i trigger them.

But, if i open halshow in linuxcnc, nothing happens.

Does moving the "setp" into the my_mill.hal help?

If you start linuxCNC from the command line (command "linuxcnc") is there any helpful output in the terminal?

if i put all the commands in my_mill.hal file i got a error.

this is the (test) code

if i start linuxcnc (program) , the error says:

parameter or pin 'pokeys.0.devSerial' not found

posting 'setp pokeys.0.devSerial 38163' in costom_postgui.hal linuxcnc starts, but no respons from the pokeys

You will need to load the component before you try to set any of its hal pins.

Swap the order of those two lines.

Do you mean this?:

Or swap the pin command?


I tried the first one though. Didn't work.
