It may be that the home-made encoder does actually have some angular noise, so the measured speed does change. Typically this doesn't matter for spindle-synch moves, which track the measured position, not the velocity. So just lowpass the spindle speed before displaying it, and forget about it. -- 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 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
