I have the following code working for the feed override control.

### Alps encoder for slider ####

net feedrate-fa encoder.3.phase-A hm2_7i92.0.gpio.021.in
net feedrate-fb encoder.3.phase-B hm2_7i92.0.gpio.023.in
net feed-rate halui.feed-override.counts
setp halui.feed-override.count-enable true

net feed-rate encoder.3.counts
setp halui.feed-override.scale 0.02

This works fine but is it possible to also to adjust the slide bar at the same time. This is being used on PathPilot 2.04

Edit: I have now tested it with Axis gui and the slider works fine with the rotation of the encoder. So this is probably a PP issue.

It depends on how PP coded their slide bar.
Since they were not expecting to support more then one GUI, they surely went the easy and quick path to not monitor linuxcnc's NML commands - they just push out commands to linuxcnc.

Thanks Chris
That makes sense to me.
I have seen it done where the sliders move but then they have done it using a pendant via usb. I will delve further.

If it _can_ work then poke around in HAL to see if there is a HAL pin exported by the PP GUI to pass back the over-ride.
