In that case, ignore me, and listen to PCW :-) Wire the MPG as suggested, then just net X-jog hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.enc0 => axis.0.jog-counts setp axis.0.jog-enable 1 net Z-jog hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.enc1 => axis.2.jog-counts setp axis.2.jog-enable 1 You will need to set the 7i76 into the correct hardware mode, I suspect. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
