Mazak QT20 Automatic tool changer

Category: Turning

I would suggest that you connect iocontrol.0.tool-prepare to the turret-unclamp output pin, and then connect carousel.0.enable to the turret-unclamp-ready pin.

That way a tool change request will immediately unclamp the turret, and the carousel component will only start up once the turret is actually unclamped.

Probably, some experimentation may be needed, especially regarding how the re-clamping happens.

For the benefit of anyone else using the L510 (or the RS-branded RS510) VFD this component seems to work:

after making this change

Install with
sudo halcompile --userspace --install --extra-link-args="-lm -lmodbus" l510_vfd.c

I assume that you are using the tool-number in HAL rather than pocket-number to bypass the tool/pocket swapping inherent to a random TC?

Is it possible that you could save a copy of the tool.tbl file before and after the problem and attach the two files here? That might help work out what is going on.

Check in hawshow if there is an enable pin for this window glade ...

If you have a different theme color, you can fix it by looking at the last comment on this post.

GMOCCAPY - Cannot find pin error

Category: HAL

Hi, I'm new to LinuxCNC and I really need your help on this issue I run into.I created a custom button in Glade.
So I made a Top Level window named window1, put in a HAL table, hal_table1 and inside the HAL table a HAL button, hal_button1. I save the file as test.glade.
I'm using Glade 3.8.6 on LinuxCNC 2.8.4.
I added to the .ini file the following lines:

- In AXIS:GLADEVCP = -u hitcounter.py test.glade
POSTGUI_HALFILE = andrei.hal
In andrei.hal I have: setp gladevcp.hal_table1 TRUE

The button is show on the interface and it's active. This is working perfect.Now I want to implement the same in gmoccapy

-In GMOCCAPY:
EMBED_TAB_NAME = test
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = gladevcp -c gladevcp -x {XID} test.glade
EMBED_TAB_LOCATION = box_custom_2
POSTGUI_HALFILE = andrei.hal
If I comment the setp gladevcp.hal_table1 TRUE in andrei.hal, the button is shown in the interface, but it is greyed out.
When I uncomment the line in andrei.hal the LinuxCNC is not starting and I have the error:andrei.hal:1: parameter or pin 'gladevcp.hal_table1' not found. Please see the linuxcnc.txt error report.

If I comment the line in andrei.hal and start the LinuxCNC with Gmoccapy interface, the button is greyed but I see the gladevcp.hal_table1 pin and I can send in halshow the setp gladevcp.hal_table1 TRUE command and it's working fine.
Also after loading the interface, I can see pins with halcmd show pin | grep hal_table1.

So as far as I can understand, the gladevcp.hal_table1 pin is not available at runtime in gmoccapy.
I tried a lot of settings with these commands and configurations and I don't know what I'm doing wrong, as aI follow the exact guidelines from the documentation.

I attach the .ini file. test.glade, andrei.hal files and the eror report linuxcnc.txt.

Whole bunch of answers here and the appropriate place to discuss it.

You'll have to give a description of your setup, what image are you using, what is the latency & ping times.

Working with Aspire 12 – Happy to Help If Anyone Needs It

Category: CAD CAM

Hello, unfortunately I don't have a contribution to your CAM system, but I do have a question about the Raspberry Pi 5 and Linux CNC On the current PC I have problems with the latency, especially in the Ethernet connection to the 7i96s. Unfortunately, this always leads to unexpected stops of the machine. The last PC was no better and I don't want to buy a third one that will cause problems. My hope is that the Raspberry Pi 5 will work easily and without problems, even if it is a bit more expensive than a second-hand PC. Replacement would also be possible at any time. Now to the question What are your experiences with the pi 5 and which version are you using? Which SD card? Any special settings? Thank you very much Greetings Erwin

Thanks for the idea. When I ran a few simple tests with no effect. I'm not sure how to test for emi. I expect if there was some my test would have had a reaction change but nothing changed. I moved the VFD as far away as I could and added a grounded makeshift shield.

I never thought to check that. I do have a filter on the VFD power. I will move it and see if that changes the problem.

tormach 1500mx modifications, 4th axis, fast I/O expansion, auxilary spindle.

Category: PathPilot

I just went ahead and ordered the 1500mx. I had to get things rolling. It's gonna be an adventure!

As I said in the top post, my fallback is to use the same yaskawa PLC I did last time as a control. Last time it was a purpose built machine, this time I would have to rewrite my code to work on a mill layout. But I still have the backup of a simple UI coded for an automation direct c-more HMI. It has data entry boxes for operators to enter numbers for triming geometry. those get stored in memory and then applied to the motion control code in the yaskawa mp2300.

I just think it would be nicer and more dynamic to have a CNC control through. Hopefully I can make some flavor of LCNC work for me.

Hello,
I am scratching my head for days trying to solve a spindle problem. I have setup 2 other mesa boards and everything was fine.
When I attempt to start the spindle (M3 S12000) or click forward in the GUI the spindle starts then stops about 1 second later.
I did have On_Abort_Command setup and it called the abort which is the only thing I can get it to log. If I change the VFD to manual control the spindle works fine. Testing the 10V spindle out seems to be fine for the 1 second then drops to 0v. The machine almost always goes to "Machine Off".
The only differences to the other machines is they have dual Y and the size of the VFD.
I ran pncconf to setup a blank 3 axis limited machine for the 7i96s, axis work fine but spindle still causes the machine to reset.
My hal and ini are a mess from testing once I clean them up a bit I can upload them if needed, they are out of the box from the pncconf.
Motion seems to be fine, limits are working. I went through the .INI and .HAL line by line comparing all spindle items and found them to be identical. But of course the others work and this one faults.
