VMC related HAL questions.

At a guess that is the [SPINDLE] / [SPINDLE_9] thing.

Changed every [SPINDLE_9] to [SPINDLE] but I still get the same error.

EDIT: Added Error, HAL and INI files

Ah I see the problem.

You have already loaded 3 x PID for the axes in the first HAL file.

You need to load them all at the same time.

So remove the "loadrt pid..." from spindle.hal and make the main HAL file line read:

It is lucky that the main HAL file uses names= or there would be a lot more editing to do.
(It might have been nice to have called the spindle ones pid.v and pid.p to keep the pattern consistent, but that's more editing)

Some progress, got another error but I solved that by removing:
But now it complains about an unknown symbol in module, spindle.hal:8

EDIT: Fixed that one by myself :laugh:
Got a few more, but I'll try to fix them myself

Well I got to feel like I somewhat knew what I was doing..

Now it´s that "motion.spindle-on" is already linked to "velocity-mode" At line 80

Yes, sorry, my error.

Delete line 80 (net spindle-on <= motion.spindle-on )
