General Mach Discussion / Re: Spindle RPM and Threading Problem
« on: October 18, 2017, 08:02:39 AM »
If the index sensor is working and appropriate for rpm range ( look at the specs of your sensor ) then the real time true rpm shown in the DRO is more accurate than you will probably be able to measure ( at least I know that for a fact and use the PP ).
The LED won't / can't update fast enough to indicate each time the index is read.
Just consider it a visual that the index is working since it's blinking randomly.
BUT
You will see the LED change from Waite for Trigger to Threading and Mode indication
from G94 to G95 via LED's every time when threading.
The problem is that the generic screen just sucks both functionally and if your trying to monitor some things
amd that is why I use a custom screen set.

Something that i'm not sure if it is correct is that i cannot see the index on every single rotation of the spindle.
