hold_dc only works for DC motor versions, I suppose.

Do you feel like experimenting?

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...s/carousel.comp#L330

Change:

Code:

if (jog_fwd || jog_rev) return; // require button release to jog again
        state = 0;

Code:

if (jog_fwd || jog_rev) return; // require button release to jog again
        if (rev_pulse > 0){
	    motor_fwd = 0;
            motor_rev = 1;
            motor_vel = rev_dc;
            timer = rev_pulse;        
	    state = 3;
        } else {
        state = 0;

That's a bit wierd.

Possibly an un-matched bracket earlier in the file?

added a parenthesis at the end

Code:

if (jog_fwd || jog_rev) return; // require button release to jog again
        if (rev_pulse > 0){
	    motor_fwd = 0;
            motor_rev = 1;
            motor_vel = rev_dc;
            timer = rev_pulse;        
	    state = 3;
        } else {
        state = 0;
        }

Now the disc returns, but the tool number does not change, the last from the command remains M6Tx

Sorry for the questions, I'm a really bad programmer)))

You mean that the tool number seen in LinuxCNC doesn't change?
No, it won't. There isn't a link between the carousel component and the internal LinuxCNC state.
You can set the tool without a toolchange with the M61 command.

So how do I solve this

Just wanted to ask if you ever ended up solving this? I'm working on almost the same toolchanger and would really appreciate if you could share your configuration.
