Basically I have configured
o<pnc_tc_manual> call
which I want to run several times (manually) during the dialog
Jogging routin - as far as I understood it :
I press pause for jogging
do jogging / (in my case tool change)
press ok/cancel for the spindle speed up (not needed)
but it broke the procedure, means it does not work properly with auto_toolsetup


so the question is - is there a way of modifying the standard dialog by adding another button properly (like add some file in handled folder)
or its just easier to create my own hal based on hal_manualtoolchange with additional button

Added
so what Im aiming now - find a way of modify class ToolDialog(LcncDialog, GeometryMixin): from dialog_widget.py inside  custom qtdragon_hd_handler.py (or similar mechanism)

Hi...new to linux here ...bought 7i96s and have powered but when trying to open Mesa Configuration tool...which I think I need as everything looks so foreign coming from mach 3...but when I open in debian I get error " Dependency is not satisfiable: Python 3 packaging.??

Thanks for any help,

Rick

meine topics, zumindest die unnötigen...

danke

hallo aciera,
danke, das werde ich morgen ausprobieren...
 habe das augeführt,leider immer noch Fehler. Dann habe ich die probe_postgui.hal leer gemacht. Jetzt startet die Maschine und die probe icons sind zu sehen.Da die probe_postgui.hal leer ist, kann man die button aber nicht aktivieren, sie lösen nichts aus.Wenn ich die postgui einfüge, kommt wieder der Fehler..
Anhang Foto meine maschine und die postgui.hal 

Did I do these steps correctly? Do I have IRQ coalescing disabled now?
 

Hello,

I'm looking for firmware for Mesa 7i96s with Index pin (release 2.9)

I followed Talla83 tutorial on Efinity but I have no clue how to implement the Index stuff. 

Thanks a lot for your support 

One cannot run MDI commands while in auto mode. When the tool change dialog pops up, you are still in auto mode.

Jog while paused is also not really available, though you can use an external offsets hack to get around that.

These are limits of linuxcnc not QtDragon.

So if that is what you need to do, the abort/restart hack is the only method I know that could work. (To be clear a dialog will pop up for automatic restart, but I haven't tested this feature in a long time.)

If the MDI commands are movements and are the same each time maybe a remap could cover it. Tell use more about that part please.

I'm doing a tool change but I need to do the following
when tool m6t1 is on the spindle it has to go back to the same
place where it was removed to pick up T2, how do I do this?

If I understand correctly you have a rack toolchanger. Maybe this helps:

Ändere mal diese Zeile in deiner hal:
zu (musst noch deinen Eingangspin mit dem FU Signal einfügen)

Hallo.

Meine 3 Achs Fräse läuft jetzt. Homing funktioniert. Referenzschalter sind eingebaut und funktionieren. Handrad funktioniert (fast). Jetzt möchte ich noch, dass spindle-at-speed mit einem Eingang verknüpft wird, der gesetzt wird (high) wenn die Zielfrequenz der Spindel am FU anliegt. Wie mache ich das? Mein FU schaltet ein Relais durch und damit liegt auf einem Eingang 24V an. Das Signal kommt an und der Eingang wird auch geschaltet. Nur wie mache ich jetzt die Verknüpfung zu spindle-at-speed?

Hat mir da jemand einen tipp?

LG

Most common reason for lack of step/dir motion
is too short step lengths, So you might try doubling
those. Also check that the direction pin  to the step drive
changes state when jogging in either direction to verify
that the pinout is correct and that the  breakout board is
working as  expected.

Try adding this to the bottom of your custom hal file. Make sure you replace <your_file.clp> with the one you want to load on startup:

Classicladder verträgt sich nicht mit der TWOPASS funktion

Mir scheint, dass du classicladder zwar lädst aber gar nicht verwendest. Falls das so ist dann kannst du diese Zeilen aus deiner hal entfernen oder auskommentieren (#):

Falls du classicladder behalten willst kannst du, alternativ, mal versuchen den 'TWOPASS' auszuschalten. Dazu diese Zeile aus der [HAL] Sparte in deiner ini Datei entfernen oder auskommentieren[#]:

Dear friends..
I was configuring a LCNC setup 2.9.2. I used PNC config.

Now, classicladder program is not loading automatically. It can be loaded from LOAD option in classicladder window.

HAL, INI, custom.hal file attached.

What wrong I did?
