OK, perhaps Aram has had no requirement to change his LinuxCNC configuration for the last 6 years. To make the THCAD control feed rate: 1) Make sure that there is a spare encoder counter, find the relevant line in the HAL file and change it: loadrt hm2_pci config="....num_encoders=4......" 2) Set the 4th encoder to counter-mode: setp hm2_5i20.0.encoder.03.counter-mode 1 3) set the scale such that 5V = 100% setp hm2_5i20.0.encoder.03.scale 1234.5678 (The number should be found by experiment) 4) Connect the encoder velocity to the adaptive-feed pin: net feed-control hm2_5i20.encode.03.velocity => motion.adaptive-feed Adaptive-feded is described here: http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/motion.9.html -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Accelerate Dev Cycles with Automated Cross-Browser Testing - For FREE Instantly run your Selenium tests across 300+ browser/OS combos.
