Sebastian,
A couple of comments on that config:
It looks like it was based off an older, somewhat buggy hm2-servo config.
Specifically, the [AXIS_*]OUTPUT_SCALE is not used by the hm2-servo.hal
file.
What I posted is the copy I have, it is about three months old, which is why
some of the
Hi all,
When the firmware for any of the hostmot supported Mesa boards is loaded on
running EMC, does it zero the encoder values? IOW, if I run EMC, then shut
it down but leave the computer running, then manually move the axes, when
EMC is restarted, what values will the firmware be holding for

Peter,
Thanks. That is basically what I thought. It has been reported to me that,
in a servo / encoder system, if EMC is shut down, then one or more axes are
moved and finally EMC is restarted, upon clearing the e-stop a runaway
condition occurs (at least sometimes). I have to get more

Sebastian (and Chris),
I will try to get some more information over the next few days. If you would
like to see the configuration, I have posted it here:

The servo portion is basically right out of the example. An easy thing to
try might be to disable hal_joystick.
