Rotary Encoder
PostPosted: Sun Jun 12, 2011 4:08 am     Reply with quote

Hello
It is my first time participating at forum.
I'm Jose from Brazil and I'd like to share discoveries and doubts too with all you.
Well I have been reading some posts about Rotary Encoders, I've been interested in it. So it's a long
time ago that I've been trying to develop an sin/cos and TTL Encoder Tester that works
fast and does not lose pulses. Then I got to implement this. Sure for not to get it more complicated
I added an external hardware (just a dual flip-flop D and four Nand gates) to detecting direction
A and B encoder pulses. It really works very well, Encoder can be rotated in high speed and it maintain
the zero point value. But it still needs some improvement. Looking at the code comments you can see
some difficulties that I have (like showing value on a LCD). Although I've been working for years on CNC/PLC
programming, I am beginner in CCS programming. If someone has an idea of improvement the code I would appreciate it.
Code:

#include <18F452.h>
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7)
#include <lcd.c>
int16  T0,T1;
float R;         //R is the result of Timer1 - Timer0
                 //I had to put a FLOAT instead INT16
void print_lcd(){ //because of LCD did not work well with INT16,
  lcd_init();     //I don't know why!
  lcd_gotoxy(1,1);
  printf(lcd_putc,"\f%g" R);
  delay_ms(200);
    }

 void print_serial() {
   t1=GET_TIMER1(); //get counter UP value
   t0=GET_TIMER0(); //get counter DOWN value
   R=T1-T0;         //R is the actual encoder value
   printf("\f R:%g T1:%Lu T0:%Lu  ",R,T1,t0 );
   delay_ms(200);
   if(t0 > t1){ //prevent to not anti-clockwise first
   SET_TIMER0(0);
   SET_TIMER1(0);
    }
   }
#int_timer2
void timer_t2(){
static int tmp;
tmp++;
if(tmp <=5){ //it divides the timing of showing 
print_lcd(); //LCD and serial
  }
if(tmp>=5){
print_serial();
  }
if(tmp>=10){
tmp=0;
 }
}
void main(){
set_tris_a(0xff);
set_tris_b(0xff);
set_tris_c(0xff);
set_tris_d(0xff);

//TIMER0 16 bits as counter /DOWN- ext input  T0CKI RA4
 SETUP_TIMER_0(RTCC_EXT_H_TO_L|RTCC_DIV_1);
 SET_TIMER0(0);
      ENABLE_INTERRUPTS ( INT_TIMER0 );
      ENABLE_INTERRUPTS ( GLOBAL );

// TIMER1 16 bits as counter /UP- ext input  T1CKI RC0
 SETUP_TIMER_1(T1_EXTERNAL | T1_DIV_BY_1 );
 ext_int_edge(H_TO_L);
 set_timer1(0);
      enable_interrupts(int_timer1);
      enable_interrupts(global);
//TIMER2 int
 SETUP_TIMER_2(T2_DIV_BY_1,0xc0,2);
 set_timer2(0);
      enable_interrupts(int_timer2);
      enable_interrupts(global);
while(true){
    }
  }

Do you have a schematic of how you added the external hardware.

Thanks

I don't know how to put image here maybe is not allowed, I can send it by email: ze.vana@hotmail.com.
