I'm writing a user-space program to manage spindle speed on a machine with a VFD for the motor, and drive ratios set by belt and gear changes.
From available HAL signals I would like to determine whether a spindle speed change is due to the speed override slider in axis, or due to a gcode Snnn speed change. I don't want to initiate a belt or gear change if it is from override. The only way I've come up with is to monitor the ratio of motion.spindle-speed-out to halui.spindle-override.value. The ratio doesn't seem to change when the override is changed, but does with programmed speed changes. Should this be evaluated over more than one program cycle to accommodate differences in timing between the two signals. Does anyone know a better way to do this? Thanks.
