Best way to program pokeys in mach3
« on: December 07, 2009, 06:58:37 AM »
For the moment I connected the pokeys to mach3 using some brains.
This brains consist of an OEMLED2002... connected to a desired function

Is it better to connect the OEMLED from the pokeys to an OEMtrigger in mach and use this trigger for further programming?
seen this typ of programming in Hood's pendant and it made me wander.

Reason for all this is that the pokeys seems to crash my machines, have 3 identical machines running it and all 3 were crashing.
Disconnected to pokeys and all was ok.

Cheers

Hi!

If you want to use only for Pendant, use one from plugin. I am using it on my machine and works fine.

Hi!

I assume that we are talking about PoKeys and Mach.  ;D So the only variant is PoKeys Plugin for Mach.  ;)
"one from plugin": So if we are talking about Pokeys plugin for mach, it should be from that plugin which we are talking about.
Probably the next question will be: "Where can I get that plugin?". The answer is: www.poscope.com
Search for PoKeys55.  ::)

ok ok point taken
silly me...

Now i do have the latest of pokeys and mach releases...
i have set the inputs up with brains and stuff but perhaps there is a better way of programming then like what i did...
using the OEMLEDs directly to do stuff to outputs and stuff

using an OEMtrigger that is set by the OEMLED from the pokeys and programming the rest with this OEMtrigger?
