> the main problem is configur EMC to plug MPG shortly: - hook up the jogwheel to a hardware encoder counter, or to general purpose IO and use the software encoder counter. - wire the encoder count to axis.N.jog-counts for all axes you want to be able to move - read the rotary-switches with general purpose IO - have one rotary switch change axis.N.jog-scale to a suitable value - have the other rotary switch set axis.N.jog-enable true for the axis you want to move.
For feed-override and spindle-speed override you need to use halui, and the relevant pins are - halui.feed-override.counts and halui.feed-override.scale - spindle-override.counts and halui.spindle-override.scale there is no enable input for feed-override or spindle-override in halui, so you just need to set the scale to zero when you don't want anything to happen to FO or SO. When running emc in verbose mode that means I get a spindle-override and feed-override message with scale=0.0 for every click of the jogwheel when jogging other axes. Annoying, but it works. Perhaps enable inputs for halui FO and SO could be added? I've written more here http://www.anderswallin.net/2006/11/jogging-emc2/ something like this should probably go in the manual since it is becoming a FAQ on the mailinglist.
