Gentlemen,
I may be overlooking something obvious.
On my G&L machine I have two pulse generators to move the axes.
One mpg on the control cabinet and one mpg on a handheld box on the
end of a retractile coil (think telephone) cord. I have a momentary
push button beside each pulse generator to toggle the control input
between the control cabinet and the handheld box. When the control
focus is on the cabinet the axis selection will be from the EMC AXIS
screen. When the control focus is on the handheld box the axis
selection will be from a four position switch mounted on the handheld
box.
How would I configure HAL to allow this? I am using a HAL encoder
and bringing the mpg A and B channels through the I/O board. Is it
possible to change the axis selection in AXIS using the four position
switch? I would also need to disable the axis selection from the
remote switch when the focus is on the main control box.
I read all the manuals and documentation I could find. If this is
just a mental block would someone unblock my mind?
thanks
Stuart
