Are you using halui to do the joystick jogging? Or are you using the motion controller's jog wheel inputs (axis.N.jog-counts and related pins)? (Those are two completely different approaches, and without knowing which one you are using there isn't much we can do to help.) If you are using the halui approach, keep in mind that joystick jogging was added to halui in CVS head only. 2.1.4 does not support it. Perhaps when you had it working before you were using a CVS checkout? Please post your hal file, in a message if its short, or on http://pastebin.ca if it is very long (post the pastebin URL here). It's late now, but I'll take a look at it tomorrow. Regards, John Kasunich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
