You need a more recent build then the 2.9.3 release.
Not sure if the LinuxCNC build-bot is still working, if not you may
have to build from source (which is pretty fast on a RPI5)

Hallo Gemeinde,
der Postprozessor der bei Autodesk Fusion dabei ist, der ist nicht gerade das gelbe vom Ei.
Normale Bohrzyklen wie zB. G83 etc. werden komplett ausgeschrieben (Z+Z-Z+Z- usw.) ausgegeben und das obwohl ich
"Use canned cycles" angehakt habe. G76 wird allerdings richtig ausgegeben.
Nun suche ich einen PP der dieses Manko nicht hat.

Danke und Gruß
Olli

Hi all,

I have an 3 axis CNC than I used rarely which is at the moment using LinuxCNC with QtDragon, but honestly, each time I try to use it, I spend the day having errors, crashes, ... It was working a few month ago and now each time the machine is about to start working (after all probing), it stop with a error like "Parameter is [3.000]".

I would like to know what is the minimal requirement to use a 3D touch probe and a tool height sensor with LinuxCNC ?

I will be glad to stick with the basic Axis UI and the minimal dependencies. All I need is :

- Touch X/Y zero with the probe.
- Touch the Z zero of my vise.
- Touch tool sensor at each tool change to adapt Z.

What is the easiest path for that ?

Thank you.

Under version 2.8 it works. I have a Scara Robot with different dimensions, so I have changed D1-D5 (but it does not compile with the original file).
with the original file). So far I have not found a way to compile this file in the forum and also with Google.
Then I tried to compile the Scarakins.c from 2.8 into 2.9.3, which did compile. However, when using the 2.8 Scarakins.so
Linuxcnc aborted with an error message at startup.
I assume that in the 2.9.3 version switchkins are a change to the 2.8 version.
Is there a possibility to compile the original and the modified scarakins.c from 2.9.3 ?
What about unserkins.comp ? I don't know how to create it.


Here is the error message when compiling:
cnc@cnc:~/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-dev/src/emc/kinematics$ halcompile --compile scarakins.c

Hello,
im using qtdragon and i have trouble when trying to measure the tool height after i manually change the tool.

this is my process:
i start the machine and after i insert a tool (i zero the tool (G54) on the top of my workpiece) and i enter in the MDI field "T6 M6" so its moving to my individual tool change position and after i have to hit "ok" when i changed the new tool. So after this step the machine is moving to the automatic tool measure position what i configure. Its going down and hit the switch then coming up a bit and then with a slower speed going down again to measure.
After this i get a message about my "probe height", "block height", and "touch result". Usually i get 78mm for touch result.(same tool)

So after this when i try to zero my machine in MDI G54 g0 x0 y0 z0 its not going completly down. In G54 its everthying 0 but if i check the absolute coordinate, showing -78, so still 78mm missing what is the same value like the touch result.

I dont know how to solve this problem. I tried and i read a lot but i didnt find anything yet.

Ah and in the versa probe menu im struggeling to set the right "probe hit" and "block hit" hight.
I always measured with my tool inside. I read i have to calculate from down (from the table) so for example i measure with absolute coordinate and i touch the top and i read the abs coordinate (z -->  -140). My maximum z travel is 240. So basically i made 240-140 and the result i gave in versa probe "block hit". then with the "probe hight" i made the same but with different result.

thank you if you read all and i hope someone can light me up.
 

Create a bitout plugin, name it estop, add a pin number, and turn the onerror modifier on for that pin. This pin will control your additional safety relay, whose N.O. contact will be in series with the machine's safety line.
In rio.hal, add the following line:If everything is configured correctly, bord is energized and LinuxCNC started, relay should remain OFF until you unlatch estop.
The machine shuld only be able to turn on while LinuxCNC is running and communication between the board and LinuxCNC is functional.

Hallo zusammen.

Ich habe meine Fräse bereits mit dem Raspi 4 am laufen. Jetzt habe ich auf den Raspi 5 umgerüstet. Linuxcnc startet nicht mehr. Dürfte an den Treibern liegen. Ich habe mit MESA Kontakt aufgenommen. Und dort wurde mir bestätigt, dass die Mesa 7c80 mit dem Raspi 5 läuft, nur müsste man die neueste Version von Linuxcnc und den hm2_spix Treiber verwenden. Die neueste Version (2.9.3) habe ich installiert. Nur wo finde ich den hm2_spix Treiber?

Hat da jemand einen Tip für mich

Liebe Grüße

Hans Peter

Hello everyone.

I already have my milling machine running with the Raspi 4. Now I have upgraded to the Raspi 5. Linuxcnc no longer starts. This may be due to the drivers. I have contacted MESA. And they confirmed that the Mesa 7c80 runs with the Raspi 5, but you have to use the latest version of Linuxcnc and the hm2_spix driver. I have installed the latest version (2.9.3). But where can I find the hm2_spix driver?

Does anyone have a tip for me?

Kind regards

Hans Peter
