First, the Hurco is alive! I carved emc/axis into a piece of aluminum yesterday; thanks to all the participants for creating & supporting emc/lcnc/linuxcnc/etc.
Now to the next level - I'm using a hall sensor to detect spindle rpm; I get a clean low-going pulse each revolution, as expected. This is fed as input to the A channel of a hostmot2 encoder (running in counter mode). The velocity output always reports as a negative number - consistent at a given speed, larger abs. value at higher rpms, so it seems to be properly following whatever algorithm it uses. I've tried forcing the B channel to both high and low states without change in output behavior. Any thoughts about what may be going on? thanks lloyd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
