5226; Add All Changes to Make a Shear Stop Faster to the Discrete I/O Algorithm
Pathfinder

Changes made for Pathfinder 5226 controllers.

The 5226 controller has two separate open loop algorithms used for controlling axes. The main factor for which algorithm an axis will use is whether or not there is analog speed control set up on the machine for that axis. If not then the axis is most likely using only I/O for movement.

The analog controlled algorithm had some changes made to make a shear stop faster. For more information refer to:

SCN 4467 - 5226; Make a Speed Controlled Shear Stop Faster

The problem is that all of the changes put into the analog algorithm could also be very useful in the discrete I/O algorithm. Therefore these changes were also added for discrete I/O controlled shears.
