Using interrupt to mark each rotation

Hello Twan Graus,

For this interrupt to function correctly, you need a couple different commands.

Ai(0) 'arm index rising edge
ITR(0, 1, 2, 1, 1) 'define interrupt when index is captured
EITR(0) 'enable interrupt 0
ITRE 'enable global interrupt scanner

It sounds like perhaps you have everything except the first line.

Thank you for your reply

This was exactly what i needed! Unfortunately with the reductor of 1:80 attached, i get just over a full rotation when i count 80 interrupts using my simple c=c+1 as interrupt program. When i print the values, i can see sometimes that it doesn't count for some time, like the values cant be read or something. Any idea what this could be? I think that it could be that my way of counting is to slow for the quick encoder wheel.

Kind regards
Twan

It could indeed be a timing issue. If you're incrementing your count variable too late in the subroutine, the interrupt may be called again before the counter can increase. Try incrementing first and see if that makes a difference.

Thank you for your reply, i was also thinking like that, but it doesnt seem to work.
The code i have now:

EIGN(W,0) 			'Disable limits
ZS					'Clear faults
VT=500000			'Set target velocity
ADT=10				'Set acceleration/deceleration Target
F					'Apply values
d=0 				'diameter tube
p=314/100			'PI	variable
i=80				'Gear ratio transmission
e=45				'diameter driving wheel
c=0					'Variable for counting
a=0					'Variable for always looping

MV 					'Set velocity Mode

'****Main Program Body
C0
WHILE 1>0			'Acts as long as no GOTO is received, startup loop
X					'Ramp down
TWAIT				'Wait for ramp down to end
OFF					'Turn servo off
LOOP				'Keep looping the while loop
RETURN				'terminate sub program

C12					'
'PRINT("INTERRUPT",#13)'
c=c+1				'Count each interrupt
RETURNI				'End interrupt subroutine

C10					'
PRINT("Selected diameter is:")
PRINT(d,#13)		'Print value		
O=0					'Set origin encoder to 0
G					'Go
			
WHILE a==0			'Act as long as a isnt adjusted. To stop loop, change variable a
Ai(0)				'
ITR(0, 1, 0, 1, 12)	'Interrupt(INT#, Status Word, Status BIt, Bit State, Label#)
EITR(0)				'Enable interrupt 0
ITRE				'Enable all interrupts
PRINT("C is ",c,#13)'Print value

IF c==1*i*d/e		'
	PRINT("Starting",#13)'Print value
O=0					'
ENDIF				'

IF c==2*i*d/e		'
	PRINT("ITR1",#13)'Print value
	S				'
ENDIF

IF c==3*i*d/e		'
	PRINT("ITR2",#13)'Print value
ENDIF				'		

IF c==4*i*d/e		'
	PRINT("ITR3",#13)'Print value

ENDIF				'
LOOP				'

END					'

I succeeded!

I used the timer example to give a pulse on a rotation. The timer triggers an interrupt which i can use for my camera.

Thanks a lot!

Good, I'm glad you were able to achieve the functionality you needed.
