Gentlemen:
I have been considering adding a manual pulse generator to the CNC
controller which I have built. My questions are:
1) Will ONE MPG be used to operate all (3) or (4) axes?
2) Are the pulses multiplied by 1, 10, 100 or ??
3) Is there a max feedrate applied to the MPG input?
4) If the speed is fast, is accel and decel applied in the system?
Thanks for your comments here.
Merry Christmas to you all,

Depends what you want.
if you are looking for testing, then there is no real needs.
if you are making a manual handwheel, then all of the above.
if you are just jogging the machine, then a manual selection switch
for the axis is approprate.
ditto for speeds max feedrate is that of the machine. a seperate
button for rapids would be desired.
and yes on accel and decel.
