Can someone please explain to me, who is used to using a spinx1 for the pwmgen output to analog voltage conversion, just how in tuncket the 7i76 works? I just now found out, when I tried to redirect a 5i25 pwmgen output pin and found from the error msg as it died, that hm2_5i25.0.7i76.spinout is a float input!
In Other Words, pwmgen.0. in the 5i25 is driveing /dev/null. So I fed the hm2_5i25.0.pwmgen.0.value to hm2_5i25.0.7i76.spinout and can now read it there with a halmeter. But I've no clue what sort of a float it wants to use the full voltage range of tb4's spindle- to tb4's spindle+ at tb4's spindle-out. The document on the 7i76 seems to be totally mute on this. Can some who knows please explain? To say I am bumfuzzled at this revelation is putting it mildly if this does indeed bring the ENA and DIR outputs on tb4 to life, which are not responding with spinout at 0.00000000. I'll have to recalibrate scales and gains at several locations in nearly a 800 LOC hal file. Thanks all.
