Are the program's extents available to the g-code?

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I wish y'all had been around when I first configured my machine... 20 years ago. :-)

After Tommy's first reply, I did some reading, and realized that since I have X and Y limits, configuring them as homing inputs as well would be trivial. And so it was, plus or minus a "+" or "-", here and there.

I think I never thought there was any point to having a true home, and really, I've gotten by without it until now. I hit the limit switches when jogging reasonably often, but they're soft-mounted, so it's not a big deal.

In any case, I'm fully configured with home+limits on X and Y now, and I have proper soft limits configured, so I'm all set. <Another high five!>

Secondary question: I don't have a Z+ limit switch. My mill is so slow I'd really have to not be paying attention for the carriage to get close to the stepper. A lower limit would be nice, but I really don't understand how that could work. My spindle is a router, so the bit length varies a lot. Is there any way to configure this to work? I see people say that they don't bother with a lower Z limit, and just rely on a soft limit there, but what would you set it to? Is there something about "real" spindles that I don't know? Are the bits always the same length?

I've played around with the wizard a lot and actually put together a good configuration. Unfortunately, LinuxCNC won't start, and after a day of back and forth, I'm pretty frustrated because the AI ​​seems to constantly assume an RTAI kernel and, despite my reminder, can't quite figure out how to use the RT kernel. Attached are the .ini and custom.hal files. How do I modify the files to make it run, or where can I get the specific information?

THANKS YOU tommylight that worked fine, I was able to switch the pin to Y limit only and cleared the
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -0.0
HOME_LATCH_VEL = -0.0
HOME_FINAL_VEL = 0.0
No home action and the Y limit errors out when it moves to the limit.  Ran a G-code fine too.
I'm very happy you guys are great.

Now to move on with the rotary build.

Yes, in this case, I would probably just leave it disconnected.
(unless you need to disable the drives so that the shafts are freewheeling)

If you have a free step/dir output on the 7I78 that can be used as a 5V
enable output

(I should clarify that my machine is "homeless".  "home" is always relative to the piece, so there's no way for the interpreter to know in advance that I'll be exceeding a limit.)

I was going from this! :)
I guess he does have limit switches, but not used as home switches.
Yeah, in that case, make a new config with home/limit switches and use "touch off" as we mortals do.

If i understood this correctly, the machine has no limit or home switches at all.

Seems like "disable" signal, not enable, as with most cheap drives lately.

The enable is a 5v differential input.
The Manual says:
"Enabling signal: This input signal is used to enable or
prohibit; In addition, it can be used to clear the drive alarm.
When ENA + is connected to +5 V, ENA-is connected to
low power, the drive will cut off the current of each phase
of the motor so that the motor is in a free state, where the
pulse is not responded and the alarm can be cleared; When
this function is not required, the energy signal end is
suspended."

If you have limit switches, why not just home the machine, and set actual soft limits? Everything you are describing is the exact reason to do it that way...

I played around with some HAL components and Classic ladder and I managed to get it working. I used a combination of Timedelay and Or2 to get the m6 command to change tools in mdi and auto. I also had to change my signals for iocontrol. I used classicladder to time the jog fwd command from the carousel component, leaving enough time to unclamp first.

Thanks for the help.

What are the specifications of the enable input?

You may be able to use a 7I77 field output if it will take say a +24V signal
