Subject: FRO/SRO with rotary encoder

Hi all,


How would one go about increasing or decreasing the Feed rate override or speed override with a rotary encoder?


I'd like to do this method as there is no ADC required and the prior state will get reset on power cycling.

Also, I can add it to my MPG controller that has 6 axes (3 unused) that could be assigned to such a task.


Any advice is appreciated.


Thanks,



Lindsay

Hi Lindsay,

You might look at the example:
\C Programs\SetFROwithHWEncoderLog.c

However this program is written assuming a separate encoder for the FRO.  You would need to modify it to have your MPG program adjust the "Encoder" variable instead of using the separate encoder channel to adjust the "Encoder" variable.
