Emco PC Turn Turret

Hey my setup was modified on the hardware end but I ended up using ferral engineers classic ladder file. I can't remember making any mods to it as such, but may have, I did however have to adjust the encoder trigger ring on the tool changer to get it to work. It still is a little temperamental for me, so must revisit it soon. Seems like there is some logic error case there that I have yet to fully in investigate. If I am in the shop later I'll grab my config files, though

For example: I moved my entire system over to a mesa 7i96 and have an independent stepper drivers for the axes.

Here's my entire config, 

Thank you I'll have a look when I get home.i have it kind of working. It knows home and re sets the counter when the index triggers. But say I call up tool 2 and then move to tool 6 everything is ok. Only when I want to call up the next tool say I'm on tool 2 and call tool 3 or 4 it hangs. The tool I call  needs to be more than 2 positions ahead of where it is for it to work

I had a look at your ladder file and it's the same just 100ms more delay on the timer. I played around with the timer but still not working. When you select a tool it counts up but when it backs into the pocket it triggers another pulse. So say tool 3 is selected . Counts to 3 then backs into pocket 3 but fires another pulse so the counter goes up to 4 when it's in pocket 3.

You might need to physically adjust the position of the sensor trigger ring on the pawl mechanism. That is what I had to do to mine to get it to work with this ladder file properly. If I remember correctly I had to move it 15 degrees or so but beyond this I don't have much more input into the coding that I can give, it has been a couple of years since I looked at this and I am not very knowledgable with classic ladder. If I were doing it again I would likely use the linuxCNC carousel comp and may change to that in future. Andy was hopeful they could add the funcitonality to back off, although I can't be sure if it was implemented. Also ladder works, there is still some work to do to make this implementation to work reliably for me.
