Hello guys again, I'm testing the homing of the X axis with a push button and that works except when the index pulse has to trigger. That never happens.
I'm using the 7i52S to move my servo with step + dir for position command right to the drive. In LCNC the stepper is working in velocity mode like it's recommended. I'm reading the Z pulse of the servo motor thru the same 7i52S using one of the encoder inputs. I'm only reading Z because I don't need A and B for my purposes now. The problem is, I can't make the homing with index feature to work. I can see the index pulse triggering to FALSE when the shaft completes the turn, and I even set the pin to TRUE again manually to see if the homing sequence stops, but the motor keeps turning at final velocity waiting for the index to happen. I'm even monitoring the joint.0.index-enable pin with Halmeter to be sure the signal is linked and it's working ok. The only thing I find strange is that I need to set the index-enable pin to TRUE by myself. The homing sequence doesn't seem to be doing that. I'm using LCNC 2.8.0-pre1-5538-g21d7db0. I was thingking maybe this feature is not allowed with steppers and that's why I can't use it? But the homing sequence is actually waiting for that index pulse so I don't think this is the case. I'm surely missing something here, but without your help I'm a little bit lost. As always thank you for your support! _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
