VB and the development of wizards / Edge detection on input

« on: January 13, 2016, 01:15:19 PM »

i need to detect a falling edge of an input to control my turret

i think the code is right but it hangs mach3?

wanted_position = 6
counter = 0
marker = 0
'input 1 = the couter of the turretpostion

message "c = " &counter
sleep(100)

activatesignal(output3) 'start run turret
While ismoving()
Wend


While (counter <> wanted_position)

   If Not isactive(input1) And marker = 0 Then
      counter = counter + 1
      marker = 1
   End If
   

   If isactive(intput1) And marker = 1 Then
      marker = 0
   End If

   message "c = " &counter

Wend

deactivatesignal(output3) 'stop turret

tnx for your reply!

i did some tests today with pokeys and a CSlab module. i used the same gcode to do the test. all went wel. so this is the proof it is not a pokeys issue but a smoothstepper issue

Hi,

I do not think this is a hardware issue. According to neoto  the plugin of SS is causing the trouble

Hi,

Neoto explained me that this cannot be asmoothstepper issue. Within a few weeks i will test my pendant with the sro funtion in combination with a cslabs controller. I will report my findings here,

Tnx tantan

i did a few more tests. it is definatly the SRO function wich causes all the trouble. i did also test it with an other pokeys56 wich i cleared and only configured the SRO: wrong again. so if you could solve this it would be great!.

tnx TanTan/Antoine

hi,

i found out what the problem was: it is an old issue: the speed override function. as mentioned before this is not working as it should be. it produces glitches so the spindle speed is shortly set to max and back. and it produces the error with the ethernet smootstepper. i think if you find the problem for the glitches you solve the stability problem too.

tnx tantan (antoine)

hi,

pokeys is perfect for hmi, it has a powerfull plugin in mach3 to quickly define userfunctions to i/o. the poblocks is a wonderfull piece of enginering. ESS is wonderfull too but in a different way.
