Negative value in feed override using an encoder
« on: November 12, 2014, 08:55:12 AM »
Hello,

I've used an encoder to change the Feed Override value and a button to reset it to 100%

But now I can set OVR to 500% and over and set it to negative values like -100%
When it goes in negative feed nothing happens because the mill is still in hold position but it's not much nice to see.

How i can tell at Pokeys plugin or at Mach3 that the minumum FOVR is 0%?

May I use a brain to do it or there is a specific setting?

+1 as I have same problem.

Did you notice that the FOVR above 300% dosen't change the actual feed ? (So above 300% nothing happens, just like below 0%)

great! I hope you will go ahead to improve the plugin for Mach3, and not only for Mach4!!

hello,

I have upgrade the plugin and the firmware v3.1.42 , but the problem still present.
When i turn down the encoder to decrease feed override, it go down under zero in negative value.....
