New Trajectory Planner - Testers/programs wanted

You know the first time I tested, I ran it without the additions to the ini file, and it took over 40 min to run the file. With them, it runs 22 and a half. Now that you mention it, the config, I sent was a backup off our network and did not have the ini updates (oops).

Here is a recent run of the new arc-cases-experimental which does non-tangent arc-arc and arc-line blending.. Rob - this has been working great - I have not had a violation.

Current TP



New TP



darn impressive! Notice the violations in master that rob fixed?

Hi, installed and configured according to the first couple of posts in this thread.

When I run this program, it run wild after about 150 lines, not sure exactly where. It tries to move to a very large (small?) negative coordinate in all x,y and z. Must turn the machine off to stop it (not running the physical machine luckily, and it overriding softlimits). Trying to stop the program will not help, machine keeps on moving.


My ini and hal files.

The beta branch is now old...

I need to change the directions of the first post.. Rob just pushed his branch to linuxcnc.org. Yay!!! So bear with me.. This is what I did to switch back. (my git foo isn't very strong)

there should be debs building too in the near future...

(this is if you have been testing on rob git repository)

cd whateveryourlinuxcncRIPdirectoryis
git fetch origin
git branch --track circular-blend-arc-rc1 origin/circular-blend-arc-rc1
git checkout circular-blend-arc-rc1
cd src
make clean
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make setuid
cd ..
. ./scripts/rip-environment
linuxcnc

this should now be running the latest from rob.

your file..

Thanks Sam, works now.

Run same program in both beta and standard. Get the same runtime.

So I guess my example do not take advantage of this new thing.

did you add the ini settings?

[TRAJ] section

ARC_BLEND_ENABLE = 1
ARC_BLEND_FALLBACK_ENABLE = 0
ARC_BLEND_OPTIMIZATION_DEPTH = 50
ARC_BLEND_GAP_CYCLES = 4
ARC_BLEND_RAMP_FREQ = 20

Depending on your acceleration - I think the path should be a lot smoother.. Using my config - 30in/s^2 (it ran a little over 1 minute faster.

This is current tp..


This is new tp.. It keeps the velocity up
