From your error log
RMM0705HZ.hal:30: Pin 'hm2_5i25.0.7i76.0.0.input-00' does not exist
Does the 7i76 have field power connected?

Thanks for the long reply. I've been doing this long enough to know that that a good bug hunter is worth their weight in gold.


I like to think so haha

> I am not sure when you'd actually want to use cutter comp, I've always just relied on the CAM to offset the paths for me

I don't fully understand what you mean there since in this scenario MetalHeadCAM is the CAM. Do you mean that you normally offset it in CAD? Or that you use G40/41/42 in gcode? FYI, support for LinuxCNC's native offsetting via G40/41/42 will probably come in the next release.

I added offsets for a few reasons. 1) visualize the actual cut path 2) possible future support for controllers that don't have G40/41/42 3) eventually support true arc and NURBS offset paths since LinuxCNC G40... only does lines.


I think we are talking past each other a bit.

I am saying that your CAM software should drive the offset, by producing a G-Code path that is offset inside or outside depending on the feature by the kerf amount. It should not rely on using G40/41/42 in the G-Code output.

The reason to not use it specifically with LinuxCNC is as follows (quoted from the manual)
Important
IF CUTTER COMPENSATION IS IN EFFECT G-CODE THC, VELOCITY BASED THC AND OVER CUT ARE NOT ABLE TO BE USED; AN ERROR MESSAGE WILL BE DISPLAYED.

> I am unsure what all of your goals are for the project, but if you need inspiration, SheetCAM is a pretty good software to try and emulate. I cant think of much I would want to do that it does not. It's nice to have free options for sure!

I currently use SheetCAM. It's great, but I don't love the interface. I also think that $279 is too much for most hobbyists. I'm also an open source maximalist so it will forever bother me that I have a closed program in my workflow.


I missed when SheetCAM became so expensive. I agree, that's too much for hobbyists. I swear when I bought it it was $79, and not $279! But I am still on version 7.

The rest I'll reply to in order:

1. I'm going to add some sort of documentation to the landing page on this. You're not actually uploading anything. MetalHeadCAM runs as a Javascript app in your browser. There's literally no backend to upload to; it's just HTML and Javascript delivered via a CDN. At some point I'm going to make it available for download as a fat HTML page so that you can run the whole thing offline.


Understood.

2. I've just deployed a new version that has first-class Imperial support. At first I wasn't sure if I should stop with the Norman conquest, or add cubits too. Go to the hamburger menu > Settings > Reset Application before trying it again because you'll need to wipe out the old metric-only state.


Good news, I will try to make time over the weekend to retest!

3. I need to scale zoom factor based on size. That's on the TODO list.

4. Edit and Prepare stages are gone now.

5. Tools are in hamburger menu > Tools. I need to get rid of the hamburger menu as that is really a mobile thing.

6. Rapid speed is in Simulation now.

7. There's now a Select All button.

8. Fit is gone. That was an experiment.

9. Should be fixed. Normals calculation needed improvement.

10. Should be fixed. There was a bug in spline tesselation.

11. This one is admittedly confusing. Default is Part because it implements "the kerf always be toward the scrap (or away from the part)?". Allowing the user to set Inside and Outside is just my way of avoiding making a hasty assumption.


Acknowledged on all of these, looking forward to giving it a go. It's nice to have CAM options.

12. Not sure what was up with that. I can't reproduce it.


If I see it again, I will try to find exact steps to reproduce. I know how valuable that is to squishing bugs.

Great work overall. Will report back after I've had another play.

Your Z configuration seems to have zero at the bottom, normally not recommended.
I would change Z machine home to top, something like


[AXIS_Z]
MIN_LIMIT = -350
MAX_LIMIT = 0.001
HOME = 0.0

Ok, I understand, thanks for the information.
For now, I've decided to add physical switches to select the wheel increments. The wheels will be decoupled from the soft increments.
This is the simplest solution for me. I already have something that works; I need to refine it.

remove the led pin from where you have it and connect it to the the halui.machine.is-on pin instead:
net some_signal_name <= halui.machine.is-on => gladevcp.led_Startstopp

the stock increment selector is a qtpyvcp linuxcnc widget. for what you are doing you might could use the user sidebar tab and make an exclusive button group using hal buttons tied to increment settings. just setup the pinBaseName for your hal pins in designer. that would allow for updating with out overwriting your changes with the stock widget.

The main issue with the on screen increment widget is how to keep it and a physical rotary switch synchronized, you could have the rotary knob sync the buttons but not the other way. you would use momentary push buttons, that would work bidirectionally as there would not be a static set switch. you could also have outputs to illuminate the momentary buttons for which increment was selected if you have enough IO. but there were so many scenarios to contend with that we ultimately decide to just leave the increment settings connected solely to the on screen jog buttons.

Category: EtherCAT

Good morning, I'm trying to build an XYYZZ gantry with two motors on the Y and Z axes. To do this, I've used 5 CMMT-ST drives with absolute encoder servomotors. I have some doubts about the homing procedure. At the moment I can see the drives, but I haven't managed to move them yet. Before causing any damage, I wanted to get your opinion on the configuration files, since this is my first time using LinuxCNC.

I hope this can eventually help other people who want to use these drives.
Many thanks to all for your help.

Is there a new Linuxcnc release in the wings ?

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Say for instance I was experimenting with building an ISO based on Trixie and found that some packages in the bookworm build aren't in the Trixie repo and
A: there is a another package that provides the same function
B: there is no equivalent for Trixie
C: a package appears to be confusing as to why it's been included
D: some packages I think maybe an idea to include
E: a file may not needed to be included

What would be the ideal way to communicate these.
BTW for the time being I had to make a temporary change to be able to install packages from the Linuxcnc repo due to the key issue.
The build was just out of curiosity to see how things go and I thought if I found anything that needed changing it may help later down the track.
I'm unsure if a pull request is the correct way to go. I apologise but my GitHub knowledge is more or less at a toddler stage.

Building an Open Source DIY Plasma Cutter on YouTube

Category: Plasma & Laser

Hi All. I'm building a plasma cutter of my own design and putting the whole process up on YouTube. I also plan to open source the whole thing once I'm done. Here's a CAD screenshot so you can see what I'm shooting for.

 

I also go over the smaller prototype version in this video:



If you're thinking of building your own table, follow along so you don't make the same mistakes I do.  My channel is at www.youtube.com/@MetalHeadCNC

I'm also going to be showing off, and eventually open sourcing, the CAM program I'm building to go along with it. You can check out the alpha version here if you're so inclined:
