Activating air blow valve M6

By precise i was thinking more controllable.

If i were to go with this solution i dont know where to begin other than the page that you linked to earlier.

But i will read up on this and give it a try.

Yes i am using hal manualtoolchange with a switch to measure tool length.

Its manual mounting of tool in the spindle

The air blast is to clear chip off before measuring tool.

i was searching the forum for an answer but could not find one so i asked.

And its working Thanks to you.

its this example i have on my machine sim/axis/remap/manual-toolchange-with-tool-length-switch

And yes there is a remap line in my INI file

remapping toolchange - related codes

#
# see python/remap.py for the prolog and epilog handlers
# see nc_files/remap-subroutines for the NGC procedures
#
# the prepare_min.ngc and change_min.ngc are templates - fill in as needed
REMAP= M6 modalgroup=6 prolog=change_prolog ngc=manual_change epilog=change_epilog

I will give this a try this weekend.

Have little time this week to test this.

Thank you again.

I think its done now.

i put this line in my HAL linked to oneshot so i can control the width of blow time.

net digital-out-0 motion.digital-out-03 => airblow1.in => hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.output-01

Then wrote M64 P03 in manual_change.ngc right after probing and a few lines down M65 P03.
Increased my digital outputs also since i was running out of them.

Thank you again.
