eccentric turning

Normally, I don't. It has always mainly been a proof-of-concept. ( here is a more extreme and complicated version)
It is installed in my lathe HAL, but the only way to set the parameters is with G-code outputs (M68). I don't use it enough to need a PyVCP or Glade panel for it.

This is crazy !

Hi

I like to try doing a gladevcp panel like you done for macro.

I think the staring point is converting the C axis used by sim config for use the spindle angle but for now i really don't understand how to start. Sim is not enough i need to see real machine working (without stock for starting :laugh: ).

In the parameters manual i see nothing about some _spindle_angle, but they are available from HAL
It is a job for some special feature version ?

Attached file needed by the sim config, any help are really welcome

Ps : i appologize if you better like creating a new topic ?

"some_spindle_angle" was meant to be an obvious placeholder for an actual HAL signal as I have no way to know what your HAL file uses for the spindle angle signal. Though now it appears that your HAL uses spindle-pos.

I have also :


Attached you can found my hal and ini

Hi

I'm trying to understand the process, this require to link this HAL value from macro to HAL the problem is i don't found some exemple, your original lathemacro pass the value to ocode subroutine.

-It is possible from ocode to update HAL pin ?
Or
-it is possible from macro.ui to change HAL value before send ocode ?
Or
-need to use other way like a remap/add new Gcode to interpreter ?
Or
- What did you think ?


The goal is mostly to allow me to easily turn some eccentric screw. (polygon is also something i like to be possible to do)
