You don't need the whole of EMC for this. But if you plan to go cnc sometime in the future it might be a good idea to use EMC anyway. - start by verifying that you have connected your encoders correctly to the hardware and to HAL. You should see the encoder count changing when looking at the corresponding signal with halmeter. - when that works, connect the encoder count to EMC. The relevant HAL pin is axis.X.joint-pos-fb where X is the number of the axis (0-5) AW ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
