Hi,

We have a press that we would like to controll using rti, or something
similar
i currently have the bones of a system setup using RTAI and mbuff, but since
its been close to a years since i set this up im wondering if there have
been
any advancments as to an interface and inviroment that would allow me to
set this up a little easier.

What we have is the following.

40ton press with mechanical feeder, with an slodstate relay on the
controller,
hold the relay closed and the press will cycle, release and it will stop.

Encoder that sits on the metal being feed and checks that the correct amount
is being feed.

Magnetic Switch at TDC.

What we are trying to acheive.

Enter the Lenght/encoder count, Enter the QTY of peices wanted press enter
and the press will cycle until done.

Each cycle the encoder is checked to see that the matereal has been feed
and the magnetic sensor is checkd to ensure that the press has reached TDC
before triggering another cycle.

When each cycle is triggered incrament the counter by one.

Simple Eh. :)

Well i wrote the routine about one year ago, took the system and the info to
the
be installed and it has sat there for that year waiting for the electritian
to install
the interface, now its installed they have lost the paperwork on how it was
done
and somehow the HDD on the system has died (Guess What) No Backup :(
I could and should kick myself for that one....

Anyway, looks like im back at square one again.

Any one have any ideas..?

Regards
Andrew
