Folks, I have a Galil DMC-4183 controller. Some of the channels have incremental (quadrature) encoders. I set the motor record to UEIP (Use Encoder If Present) to 1, and the RRBV reads the encoder value correctly. The problem is that when I put the motor record into SET mode and type a new position it sets RVAL correctly, but it does not set RRBV. This would make sense if this were an absolute encoder, but for an incremental encoder I do want to
set the current readback position. What am I missing? Thanks, Mark |
