I'd like to hook up a tachometer sensor to my mill. My idea is to have emc2
count/process the input stream of pulses and display the rpm on a pyVCP dial.
I've tried searching the archives, and cnczone, without finding info on how to
implement this.
Any ideas ?
TIA,
Rick

Hi Rick
Do you have a tachogenerator or an resolver?
a tachogenerator is like a dynamo giving a sinus voltage/current wich is
proportional to the revolutions. You can use a rectifier circuit and measuere
the effective voltage via a/d

The EMC encoder HAL component has an option to count pulses from a
single signal (as opposed to a standard encoder with two signals in
quadrature).

Thanks for the assists. You've given me direction and now I'll dig into the
