M101 again

I can understand your frustration. When your in a hurry to make production the simplest mistakes will always trip you up.

Back to Does Your Pin 14 turn on the collet closer?

First you can't have pin 14 connected to a signal when you try and setp (set pin).

Take a look at the image...

imagebin.ca/view/LL6d8jw.html

if you see "parport.0.pin-14-out <= some-signal-name" in the HAL Configuration Show Tab then you can't set that pin with setp.

So if you can type just as shown in the image and make the pin 14 go on and off and your collet closer opens and closes then you know that part works.

It's hard to tell what your doing where with "I have tried all of the others with no luck." You need more than luck when dealing with a CNC machine.

Now to the M1nn file...
If the first line in your M1nn file is not:
#!/bin/bash
or
#!/bin/sh

it won't work. and btw I just learned that sh is more universal.

If the M1nn file is not in the nc_files directory it won't work unless you changed your ini file.

Sometimes you need to back up and read the manual again after gaining some experiance.
