Greetings; There is a motion.backlash-vel output available, looks like a float. + or - number dependent on the direction.
I am thinking that I could feed this float into a comp(are) module, and use its output to disable high, the motion.probe-input for the duration of the backlash move, or maybe even for calibration purposes, xor it, so I can move away from the contact without getting a probe stop during the backlash move. Usable idea? I did get that screw ordered that we talked about on IRC this afternoon, and I have the ghost of an idea for the carriage to nut linkage semi- assembled in my head. I am thinking a couple of old tape measure springs might make a decent dust cover, and that a plate on the bottom of the apron could hold a bracket that reaches up to the nut but haven't drawn any what if sketches yet & won't till I have the screw and nut in my hands. A month max according to the seller. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
