*Hi* *about --*Why not try doing it the way I said?---
*I*'*m* only quessing about what you said because i do not understand that programming language. “Martian” language. ///////////////////////////// first -- only 2 files that I can change 1—5i20.ini 2—hm2-servo.hal is this right? //////////////////////// --- Just change the Hostmot2 configuration string to have 4 encoders--- in 5i20.ini ---- [HOSTMOT2] DRIVER=hm2_pci BOARD=5i20 CONFIG="firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT num_encoders=3 num_pwmgens=3 num_stepgens=0"--- need change it to [HOSTMOT2] DRIVER=hm2_pci BOARD=5i20 CONFIG="firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT num_encoders=4 num_pwmgens=3 num_stepgens=0" //////////////////////////////// is this right? /////////////////////////////////////////////////// ----2) Set the 4th encoder to counter-mode: setp hm2_5i20.0.encoder.03.counter-mode 1 ///////////// in file ---hm2-serv0.hal change this # encoder feedback setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.03.counter-mode 0 to # encoder feedback setp hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.encoder.03.counter-mode 1 ///////////////////////////////////////////////// about 3) set the scale such that 5V = 100% setp hm2_5i20.0.encoder.03.scale 1234.5678 (The number should be found by experiment) ……………………. in which file 5i20.ini or hm2-servo.hal I should do that? //////////// is this in ---ini --- INPUT_SCALE = (-167936)? or just add (setp hm2_5i20.0.encoder.03.scale 1234.5678) into hm2-servo.hal? thank you ////////////// thank you On Mon, Jun 2, 2014 at 3:45 AM, andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 2 June 2014 00:53, a k <pccncmach...@gmail.com> wrote: > > this is axis that i add and i think that line that need to be replaced > one > > of 10-11-12-13-14 > > Adding an extra axis adds a lot more than it needed.
