Needed to decrement the u32 for slower speeds per detent felt in the fingers, basically getting back to a microstep per felt click as the minimum speed. I was going to use the A signal as the stepup/stepdown clock. Is there a better way, John? I do not want to have to grab the mouse, find the + & - buttons on the screen, hit the right one, and issue a bunch of clicks to achieve a counts per click change that is then sent to motion.joint-jog. Much more time consuming that way. I am also assuming that motion does not apply a jog when its already issueing move commands of its own, but I'll lock the encoders reset down when it is in motion, even if it is jogwheel induced motion. Fewer operator suprises I think. Advice appreciated since my original block diagram of this was just invalidated by multiswitch's behavior, and a new way isn't totally fleshed out yet in whats left of my mind. Thank you John.
