Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Mesa 7i77 encoder max count rate

Yes, filter was the first thing I tried. And it does not change max count rate at this setup. I tried to play with muxed-count-rate, but could not raise it more than 16666666. When I tried some bigger number - the system just hang =|


changing the mux rate should not be able make the system hang (though if too fast it may scramble all the encoder counts vaues)

If the filter-rate setting does not change the maximum count rate,
the count rate limitation is not the 7I77 but something external
(possible the converter or the interface)


I could not find how to change the skew while I found this mentioned in forums. I am using standard Mesa cable, but can make shorter one, about 400mm length.


The skew setting HAL pin is only exposed with version 4 encoder counters

Did you try turning off the encoder filter bit?

The limitation is because the 7I77 encoders are muxed. You can push up the mux
rate with rev 4 encoders because they allow adjusting the multiplexing skew
(from cable delays and switching times)
