Silly bin/sh question

I can not see a reaction when I try to start a file from the examples containing

---

#!/bin/sh

# M101 in your G code program will run the Linux commands in this
# shell script "batch" file, passing the P and Q variables as command
# line arguments.

# give the command line arguments descriptive names
P=$1
Q=$2
SH
echo "M101 P$P Q$Q: put your code here"

exit 0

---

So I tried to find bin/sh could find versus f.x. bin/phyton

Is there something missing in my installation or do I have a hughe NRFM ptoblem with linux ??

Good morning

I got this SH running, also I don't now why first test did not work ....

What I still want is to use M1xx commands via pyvcp.
I want to have a set of programs, executed via pyvcp pushbutton, naturally with normal preview in axis.

I can call:
a. "Phyton code" ...... can not transfer to Axis as this is a "ubuntu child problem"
b. "Subroutines" ...... first I see nothing in axis, second G code starts directly, third M1 is not working as it locks up Axis
c: I can do something based on #!/bin/axis ....... but this restars EMC

Is there a way/command similar to "halrun" that loads a file into axis, as the normal load file button is doing it.

Mike

Hi John yes can do all that ( and did it in different tests.

What I try to have is :

A set of programs connected viapyvcp pushbuttons, and as a result a normal preview in axis and than the posibility to start that program..

As descibed before I have found and executed three methots, all not what I want to use

So the last way is to "simultae the load mechanism" of axis

Yes mine too.
I'm since 30 years in industial sw ( mostly sales) , so I have rough ideas what is possible and what needs a real expert.
My only small hope/idea is that I might have a look into that remoteaxis....

Mike

Does anybody know if I could use Emcrsh to place a new file into running axis ?

Hi

Sorry, didn't see this at the time

Very simple 'axis-remote ~/emc2/ngc/thefileyouwant.ngc'

You can also reload or enter MDI commands from it too

I will try tommorow.

If this works as I expect, this can solve a lot of dreams.
