1: Homed unit
2: Pressed First button ... halui.mdi-command-00 == false
3: Went to mdi tab - pressed button -> halui.mdi-command-00 == false
4: entered o<toolchange3> call in mdi window. Toolchange executed correctly
5: Pressed First Button -> halui.mdi-command-00 = true and toolchange worked
OK, so this so far sounds as though the subroutine call does work as long as halui.mdi-command-00 is actually driven true, and that the problem appears to be in the classic-ladder interlock.
What does the Classic Ladder system do?
What happens if you miss it out? ie change this in the postgui hal file
Code:
--------------------------------------------------
# set up the z-axis wood touchoff button
net remote-z-axis-touchoff classicladder.0.in-00 <= pyvcp.z-axis-touchoff
# set to mdi mode
# show pin
net mode halui.mode.is-mdi => classicladder.0.in-01
# wait for motion to finish Use this file if you are using the EMC2 version 2.3.x or newer.
net in_pos motion.in-position => classicladder.0.in-02
net z-touchoff classicladder.0.out-00 => halui.mdi-command-00
to
Code:
--------------------------------------------------
# set up the z-axis wood touchoff button
net pyvcp.z-axis-touchoff => halui.mdi-command-00
6: Loaded "Checkers.ngc"
7: Pressed first buttin -> halui.mdi-command-00 == false.. No tool change
8: Mdi panel - tried to do o<toolchange3> call -> failed ..error message failed to find Otoolchange3 before EOF
Let us skip over that last error for a moment, that sounds different...
