You can run HAL from the command line (I do this a lot when testing). Halrun starts a HAL session, and from then on you can use tab-completion to help type the commands. halrun loadrt hostmot2 loadrt hm2_7i90 ... and the rest of the line ... loadrt threads addf hm2_7i90.read thread1 addf hm2_7i90.write thread1 start setp hm2_7i90.0.pwmgen.00.value 1 (use tab completion, I am guessing the pin names) > I also need to determine encoder count loadusr halmeter pin hm2_7i90.0.encoder.00.rawcounts Then twirl the shaft and look at the counts. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
