Startup Question

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Simple question that I cannot seem to locate the answer: block blast
No matter what offset I was using when I shutdown LinuxCNC I want my DROs to read 0 after I restart and then home. I can do this with the Touch-Off button in Axis but how do I set my INI/HAL file to clear offsets when LinuxCNC restarts?

Of is there a mdi input that would have the same outcome?

Thanks,
HH
You can zero offsets on startup by adding a small macro with:G10 L2 P1 X0 Y0 Z0  ; zero G54

Call it after homing, or set it in your
.ini
under
OPEN_FILE_ON_STARTUP
to run automatically.

Machine from LinuxCNC 2.8.4 to LinuxCNC 2.9.8 not working anymore

Category: Forum Questions

Rod seems on the right track, there are several missing files that might be there but will not be found as it seems the user name and subsequently the file path was different.
Old user name was

Machine from LinuxCNC 2.8.4 to LinuxCNC 2.9.8 not working anymore

Category: Forum Questions

Your errors show that there are some missing file paths. There are probably defined in your ini file.
The most likely issue is you are using a new user name.

However, also Python V 2.7 used in 2.8 was deprecated. Later versions of Debian use Python 3
I thought there was also a python syntax error so you may need to convert your script to Python 3.

Machine from LinuxCNC 2.8.4 to LinuxCNC 2.9.8 not working anymore

Category: Forum Questions

Hello,
I try to use a machine, which was flawlessly working under LinuxCNC 2.8.4 (LinuxMint 19.3), in LinuxCNC 2.9.8 (LMDE6), but no success.
It is a basic Milling Machine (GMOCCAPY), with added support for VistaCNC-P4S and some python scripts and macros for tool touch off.

I tried the full featured ISO for Debian 13 Trixie with LinuxCNC 2.9.8, getting the exact same result (error).
I tried setting up a new machine using PNCconf, wich works fine. As soon as I add the necessary lines for either the VistaCNC-pendant OR the lines for the touch off, I am getting the attached error down below.
while starting the machine, I can hear the relais clicking, but the GUI never shows, the error prompts before.
I tried using the the new python scripts from the sim directory, but no success.

Can somebody sparky shine a light here? what exactly changed between LinuxCNC 2.8 and 2.9 to make those machines incompatible?
uname -a
Linux cncpc 6.1.0-42-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Debian 6.1.159-1 (2025-12-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux

My Installation:
-LMDE6-ISO, checksum checked.
-sudo apt-get update / upgrade
-sudo apt install linuxcnc-uspace -> gave me 2.9.0 wich threw the same error and was not wanted.
-downloaded linuxcnc-uspace_2.9.8_amd64.deb from linxCNC.org
-sudo apt install mesaflash
-copying files for VistaCNC-P4S and "make install".

Any help appreciated! Many thanks!
Cheers.
Martin.

Z axes reference gets "forgotten" was created by rubinstu

Z axes reference gets "forgotten"

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I'm having a problem where after I zero-out the Z axis, some of the time, it seems to be "forgotten" when I run the program. Before running the program, I can jog to (0, 0, 0) and the tool tip is in the right place, but when I run the program, the tool either cuts way above (annoying, but no harm) or way below where it should (crash, piece ruined). I can't quite put my finger on workarounds like re-setting Z, re-loading the program, etc. Often the second time I run the program is works fine. The X and Y setting is always fine.
What could be going on here?
What can I do to get to the root cause?
All ideas are welcome. Thanks

It's not a laptop, it's an i3 mini PC, I'll swap it for a i5 I have laying around and see what happens.

I'm a huge fan of your videos, I was actually watching one of them when you replied!!

The Mesa configuration tool does not generate bitfiles, it uses existing bitfiles
If you need a 7I97+7I89 configuration I can build that but it may require dropping some
encoders. Do you need all 14 high speed encoders?

On the watchdog timeout, what error do you get from LinuxCNC?

(Easiest way to log these error is to start LinuxCNC from the command line
all error will be printed there.

Generating a own Popup

Category: Qtvcp

Dear Chris,

i wanna thank you for your help at first.Ive put your file in the given path under the name vacuum_popup_handler.py as i thought its a own handler data for the popup, qtdragon_hd_handler.py is already the main handler data for the whole programm or did you mean to add it in the main code? Then i did the EMBED Part like

DISPLAY = qtvcp -d qtdragon_hd
EMBED_TAB_NAME = vacuum_popup
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = qtvcp vacuum_popup
EMBED_TAB_LOCATION = DIALOG

I think this is the way u meant it. Ive also safed the vacuum_popup.ui under qtvcp/panels/vacuum_popup/vacuum_popup.ui.Ive posted the crash code. It tells me a TypeError "Wrong base class"

Netzwerk Controller Intel 82579LM Gigabit Network scheint aussetzer zu haben

There are many factors that can cause your issue, often due to periodic background processes. Normally I would say set the coalescing settings but that seems to be OK from your data.
I did a video series on tuning the RT Kernel including network optimisation.This should fix it.

This PC may not be suitable. Is it a laptop? If so, replace it with a desktop.
There is no simple fix as it is a culmination of things required to tune the RT Kernel.
But before you give up, follow the steps in this playlist
