A question for motor record gurus. I have been using the motor record for some time and have encountered a wee problem with stopping a stepper motor after the HOMF or HOMR field has been set. I am assuming that HOMF/HOMR will be reset when the home switch is encountered so am I right in thinking that the STOP signal will be effectively ignored during the home seek operation unless HOMF/HOMR is reset? The documentation on the Web; at http://www.aps.anl.gov/xfd/SoftDist/swBCDA/recMotor.html does not say if HOMF/HOMR is reset immediately or when the home switch is found. ============================================================================== Len Lawrence Tel. : +44 (0)131 668 8255 (direct) UK Astronomical Technology Centre Royal Observatory +44 (0)131 668 8100 (switchboard) Blackford Hill [email protected] Edinburgh EH9 3HJ aka [email protected]
