By ngc program does that also include a remap done in Python?

I thought the values were stored in self.lineedit_list.sensor_x and self.lineedit_list.sensor_y but I can't seem to get at them.

Thanks

Hi all,

I am a windows user and very new in Linux environment, because of the limitations i am switching from Mach4 to Linuxcnc.

- Os: Debian 12 bookworm and linuxcnc came together with it
- manage to install QT 5.15.8 designer
- also linuxcnc widgets installed in QT designer

I prefer to use vertical screen so at first i wanted to try to design a new ui from scratch, i will also try to modify an existing 4 axis horizontal ui to vertical by just moving the widgets around(not deleting or adding anything) but first;

i am following this guide linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/gui/qtvcp...._sheet_custom_screen

put some buttons, gcode view, graphics view etc. but stuck with the line where it says "save the .ui file", it says to save it as tester.ui in sims/qtvcp folder. it doesnt say where that folder is or how to load the ui in linuxcnc.

this is most probably a very simple question but can any of u guys tell me where that folder is and how to open tester.ui gui in linuxcnc and test it as sim ui?

I am getting used to all linux environment and that "sudo" thing so please say it as simple as possible like u are teaching to a windows user

Thanks in advance..

Sorry, shorthand. -ve = negative, +ve = positive. Was using it to express direction.

i.e. 0 value to negative values (i.e. -ve) etc...

Ok so disabled the irq coalescing.  ping stats are pretty much identical and I still get the same realtime errors popping up.

I am also attaching the sheetcam code that generates the “ Radius to end of arc differs from radius to start:” error. I have tried with a number of different gcode files and if they include arcs they result in the error. I added in the G91.1 to see if it fixed it, it didn’t

 

Hi. 1) How did you started your Flexible GUI? Just modifying the AXIS.GUI (don't know where it is), or creating a new one? And 2) how do you compile it then with linuxcnc? Thanks a lot.

thank you so much. Before I used Shift for fast movement. Now it doesn't work, can it be activated somehow? Is there a changelog where I can see basic probe changes?

Its been a very busy few days. slowly getting tools dialed in for the new machine. Still a long way to go with ohmic sensing and the air scribe, but I'm happy with how everything is moving. the factory hypertherm cut charts are about 1000mm/min off what is actually working.

This is interesting... I will read about that later. If i can directly save files from Fusion360 to that USB drive that is plugged to the Router, then this option might be best.
I will test it, thank you!

Okay,

I managed to get the encoders and Analog outputs working !

The next thing would be to get the io's working correctly.

I attached the corrected hal and ini- also the thing that comes from "halcmd show pin > all_linuxcnc_pins".

It feels like, I am missing some ios.

Is that correct? What about the sserial init. at the beginning of the .hal?

Thanks guys

is it entirely impossible or just not worth the effort? because I dont think so replacing the motors and/or drives is within our budget

i was suggesting that you can easily do it in TCL youself, but apparently there's no command which would return a net name a pin connected to. only "show pin" which prints to stdout. and it's a bit complicated to capture it into a variable...
anyways, the following show work:

Another option, if your router supports it, is to use that to share files, I have a TPLink TD-W9980 which I just use as an access point, plug a USB drive into it and I use that as a central point for small files. I know it's always on and always available.

Update with good news:
I decided on yesterday evening to install Debian (7?) wheezy 2.7.x and then i upgraded to 2.9.
- No unexpected realtime delays on start up
- no joint following errors
- strangely, OneDrive is working with rclone, but need to mount everytime after reboot, but i read its possible to automatically mount it.

I didnt test much, but i was 45min ago in the workshop with the pc after 8h latency-histogram test and tested all functions and axis movements. On tomorrow i will do more test.


@unknown: Thanks for the tipps. Actually, 2 days ago i ordered a input filter to vfd and firrites beads for the output cables to motor. Also i have mounted it to the wall.
I didnt know about the "Line Reactor". I will check which one i need and for sure i will also order it. I want to be 100% sure that there will be no problems comming from the vfd in future.

Also thanks for the winscp tip, i will take a look at it if OneDrive fails.
I also tested filezille ssh and it works, BUT i will explain how i did it always and its for me the most comfortable setup:
- When i save cnc programms in Fusion360, the files are saved directly to a OneDrive cloud folder.
On my Workshop Windows PC, as well as my main Home PC i have set it up like that, so even when all Windows PCs are offline, i can still access the files on the LinuxCNC PC.

Now, if i would use FileZilla, the LinuxCNC PC has to be ON.
Also, i have more steps to do: First save files in Fusion360, then move the files to the Linuxcnc pc.
Its not a catastrophe, but onedrive mount is faster and simpler.
The best would be to have a hardware server that is always on, but if its even possible, then for sure it not a quick thing to setup.

Okay i have to start to work, but MAYBE finally the problem is solved, but i need to do some tests on tomorrow, when the VFD input filter is installed and the ferrites beads.
Br, Denis

Hi
I apologize but there are more than 200 posts
I looked through them, I didn't find an answer, maybe I missed it.

I was wondering if the Stlink tool in Debian is suitable for flashing the NVEM V5
if so, I don't know what should be inserted in "Goto address" maybe 0x080000?


 


thanks

Just to be clear:
Changing acceleration values during Gcode execution IS possible. But the changed values are only used AFTER the interpreter has encountered a queuebuster command (eg M66 E0 L0) in the gcode which forces a synchronization between the interpreter and actual motion control.
For an example of how to use custom MCodes to change ini values (eg axes-limits, -velocity and -acceleration ) see the included 'millturn' simulation config where these values are changed using M128/M129:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...millturn/mcodes/M129

The queuebuster command (ie M66 E0 L0) is located in the preceding 'M428/M429' remap that call 'M128/M129' respectively:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...ap_subs/429remap.ngc

The split in MCodes is necessary because it is not possible to set halpins directly through gcode but only through a hal command. On the other hand it is not possible to issue gcode commands to synch the interpreter using a hal command.

So what all this means is that changes to axis acceleration have to be inserted into the gcode program prior to program execution.
