Greetings all;
I just hooked up a couple cables to the BOB on a 5i25's p2 connector. But
gpio 31-32-33-34-35 apparently have no pullup.I searched thru the hal
file looking for gpio.013, which is the pin all three switches formerly
shared and is wired to p3-10. Those pins have a pullup, to abo

Tactilly this is true, but its z index could use used to zero the hal
representation. But not having a mechanical stop at that zero seems like

You could have a ring of LEDs on the encoder knob to form a virtual
pointer. (Serially addressed with slip-rings)
An LED next to each 10% mark is prob
You can't have a pointer on an encoder because you have no way of
knowing where zero is.

For the OCD like myself, the one machine I work with that has a factory pot for
feed override, is a pain to twiddle the knob to get the control to show exactly
100% on the screen. It's always a little over or under. I would very much
prefer an encoder. Just because you have an encoder knob do
I use pots on all of my machines. Generally I have 3 pots, FRO, maximum
feed and spindle override. The ADC is provided by an Arduino which
controls all of my front panel buttons and talks to LCNC via Modbus over
USB. I did put the code on the wiki many years ago but I just did a
search and coul
