Hi

spindle is connected to ENC channel 1 as per CSL instructions.

Not sure what pics you need, there are many options?

As good as i could, it runs best with just a P value, no I or D.

I get the angle error!! message plus seemingly random angles, i did some repeats and got these...

I used M20 Q100

The Q-Arg response was always 100

The error offsets in order were…

1 - 284.9
2 - 109.6
3 - 119.2
4 - 138.5
5 - 177.1
6 - 254.1
7 - 48.3
8 - 356.3
9 - 253.1
10 - 46.2
11 - 352.5
12 - 245

Could you disconnect the index signal from controller and enc module and check whether threading  still works?

Ok, pulled the index from the ENC module and threading still worked - the thread-sync LED in mach came on as normal and the code ran ok.

I pulled the index from the main controller and nothing worked very well, spindle still ran but tried an M20 and the controller just hung, had to estop and close Mach to get out.

Seems all the ENC module is doing at present is spindle speed display??

I can try that, possibly be in the morning though. See how work goes this afternoon

Thats the thing- if the index was failing it wouldn't thread ok - but it does, very nicely in fact.

Not sure what else i can do with it at present, really don't want to have to fit another encoder, probably not worth it just for alignment.

As far as i know it's the index that resets the angle counter and that seems pretty happy???
