General Mach Discussion / Estop unable to reset

« on: March 29, 2012, 10:38:07 AM »

Hii
Get an "External Estop Requested" message all the time
If I change the active level of the Estop pin I then get the "Estop Button pressed" message
Nothing seems to clear the Estop ?
Have the same problems on 2 machines my office machine with no IO connections, my CNC mill with every thing connected
I use Pokeys for its IO, could it be causing this?
Increasing the switch debounce time has no effect
Any suggestions?

PoKeys / Emulated Inputs with Pokeys

« on: November 11, 2011, 07:30:46 PM »

Hi

Got pokeys working with a 5 by 7 keyboard
Using some emulated keystrokes with OEM triggers
Set up pokeys to produce a oem triggered input (same character on up and down key)
When I build a brain the triggered input goes active and stays there, it never goes inactive
From the Mach manual it states that on the down-key message the input goes active then on the up-key message the input goes inactive

Seem to be missing the up-key message

Any suggestions?
Or is the another method to get the Pokey keys strokes in Brains

Regards
