Using the position.txt file and a tweak to the Mesa resolver driver I have had good results making my lathe work as if it has absolute encoders.
Does anyone have any opinions about whether I should, or should not, push it? Naturally it would need docs, but you basically just need to connect joint-pos-fb to the resolver module so that it can see the value read in from the position.txt file and set a bit parameter to say "wait for that value" https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/commit/0ece124eb52ad6b723db326543714af66ed1930a -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
