Here is a schematic of a typical LinuxCNC spindle orient setup:

I happen to be doing about the same thing - The svg is quite helpful but I 
ended up with 3 questions..

In my case output of will go to a VFD - that currently has only an input for Hz.

I have been thinking of adding a scaling input to the VFD component - which would apply a scaling factor to the input ( and an output pin so one can see the resulting Hz) . This is because the ini file has

MAX_OUTPUT
OUTPUT_SCALE
That are involved in this - defined as RPM - so I'm thinking there needs to be a scaling so the input to the VFD is actually in RPM? ( Are these actually inputs to the motion component?

I'm not clear as to what sets the speed that orient happens at?


Also - If someone has the ini and hal files for the orient schematic above - I 
would love to see them.

(Looks like the Hal code for orient is going to be a bit of a mess to write 
clearly )
