But while I did make some progress at this on the mill, it lost the encoder index pulse, intermittently. Traced to a possibly broken cable that had 3 damaged spots on it, and no clue how they got there. So, since I have a much bigger problem on the Sheldon, I attacked it and now have it reporting the turns of overshoot. But haven't modified any of the rigid threading routines so they export the tpmm so I can use it. That then will be done tomorrow I think. Not having a gear shift to contend with between the encoder and what I'm trying to do is a lot simpler w/o the gear shift. The weather went to hell in a hand-basket around 16:45, and my generator now has about 8 more hours on it. Winds gusting to 60+ mph, rain horizontal, but my gage caught 1/2" in about 5 or 6 minutes. Took down a tree across the back lane the city or county had to clean up, and 2 more blocked access to town and pulled the power lines down, down beside the river without going around the back way an extra mile. Interesting day, not! -- Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
