mpg hand wheels <Resolved>

Spoke too soon, now the wireless hand wheel is not working.

Please post a new report. We should be able to figure out what is going on from the parameters and any PLC modifications.

Report from this morning attached. Thanks.

Oak and ALLIN1DC stock PLCs are not set up to work with both WMPG and other handwheels by default. The Acorn, AcornSix, and Hickory Wizard PLCs are set up to allow the hardwired MPGs to work when the WMPG is disabled and vice versa.


Try replacing this block in your PLC program

Code: Select all

; Enable the Software to read the Wireless MPG or Hardwired MPGs with MPGLED
IF (MPGLED_O && HandWheel_M && !MPG_M) || UsbMpgOn_M THEN (SV_MPG_1_ENABLED)
IF MPGLED_O && SV_MPG_2_AXIS_SELECT > 0 THEN (SV_MPG_2_ENABLED)
IF MPGLED_O && SV_MPG_3_AXIS_SELECT > 0 THEN (SV_MPG_3_ENABLED)

with the following.

Code: Select all

; Enable the Software to read the Wireless MPG or Hardwired MPGs with MPGLED
IF (MPGLED_O && HandWheel_M && !MPG_M) || UsbMpgOn_M THEN (SV_MPG_1_ENABLED)
IF MPGLED_O && SV_MPG_2_AXIS_SELECT > 0 && !UsbMpgOn_M THEN (SV_MPG_2_ENABLED)
IF MPGLED_O && SV_MPG_3_AXIS_SELECT > 0 && !UsbMpgOn_M THEN (SV_MPG_3_ENABLED)

This should disable the two wired MPGs while the WMPG is enabled and allow their use when the WMPG is disabled.
