Experimenting with Ethercat. Connecting three devices it work perfect. But with more there are cases then only some messages arrive back to master and some cases there no messages arrive back to master. Even though message do not arrive back as expected checking with broadcast write message

[Emc-users] Carousel. ordinary encoder as sensor

My carousel have an ordinary encoder used to sense angle of carousel wheel with an index impulse. A digital output signal rotate carousel, index pulse must occur before sensed value is valid and have to wait until a given position depending on selected tool to turn off rotation of carousel.

Sampler I found is simple to use then executing it from using a M1xx command, algorithm of shell script below:   1. Disable sampler.   2. Added an extra option to halcmd command read until buffer is "empty", used number of samples zero. Execute with this option to empty buffer.   3. Enable

Need to orient spindle. Using a quadrature encoder spindle need to be "homed" by rotating up to one revolution to find index pulse but there is no homing for spindle. Know what index pulse is in encoder but what does the index enable signal for spindle do? or how is it used? There is a float
