yep no stress.

Yeah, not possible, and not because of this or anything here, not sure if you bumped into a post some 2 months ago where i mentioned the government literally destroyed my business (paid for china machines for whoever applied for that grant) so now i have 5 or 6 new machines collecting dust and a new shop i have no use for.
I hate to say it, but i will have to become a youtuber or start training schools, be it online or live, ... or start doing flooring as this has gone from 2-4 euro per sq meter two years ago, to 11-14 euro now! And of course, i am bloody good at it, but .... oh hell no.
5:54AM so i am off to bed, will report back whenever i get a chance to test, been preparing some stuff for 6 days ... yotuber :)

Whats confusing to me too, is that i cannot use 
"loadusr -W hal_input Code Mercenaries KeyWarrior Combo O Commander" , that one won't work, only without " , its accepted.
As far as i know, you should always use " when there are blanks in a name / path.

Try:
loadusr -W hal_input "Code Mercenaries KeyWarrior Combo O Commander"

The problem has been resolved after adjusting the parameters of `joint` and `pid`.

I measured 0.2mm using a logic analyzer, which is not 64 steps.Tang Nano 9k riocore ,leadscwer=5mm,driver= 1600step/revScale_Out=320 ,1mm/320=0.003125mm/step0.2mm/0.003125=64step

... ich meine ich hätte gelesen das die Eingänge 5volt tolerant sind und einen Pullup-Widerstand hätten.

Das ist wahr fur diese:


This is very different from the P1 expansion connector
that is only for +5V signals max and has pullup resistors.

Die normale eingange mit schraub klemen, da sind OK fuhr 36V

The isolated inputs on TB3 accept 4V to 36V signals.

Hallo,
ich kann jetzt die Karte über Ethernet ansprechen und habe auch die 7I96_inmd.bit auf die Karte gespielt. Nur mal eine Frage für
die Zukunft: Gibt es eine Karte die so ähnlich wie 7I96 ist aber Eingangssignale von 24Volt verarbeiten kann?

THC doesent work when G code is running

Category: Plasmac

while doing the first tests on my machine I noticed that THC doesnt work when the machine is running G code
I looked around and did some tests and it does work and move the z axis when I start a manual cut with f9 and jog with the arrow keys

QtplasmaC is getting arc voltage and arc ok signals 
the G code im testing is the metric wrench and things from the conversational panel
the THC enabled light turns on but not the active light
it looks like the machine is getting up to the feed speed 

how should i troubleshoot this and am I missing something obvious?

The HAL types and isolation work on master 2.10, changes how C/C++ components register and access pins and params: opaque refs with hal_get_*/hal_set_* accessors instead of direct volatile pointer dereference. The old API still builds (deprecations, not removals), so this is a migration window, if you need clarification please post here or better on

Help needed for conversion of old ( and loved ) Mach3 MPG

Category: Basic Configuration

Hi folks!

i try to get my loved MPG in action in Linuxcnc, but i struggle..

when i ask lsusb i get told its a:
ID 07c0:0115 Code Mercenaries Hard- und Software GmbH KeyWarrior Combo O Commander
when i ask cat /proc/bus/input/devices i get

when i run "halrun" and type in:
loadusr -W hal_input Code Mercenaries KeyWarrior Combo O Commander
The keys get loaded, but they get loaded 5 times!
I am told that the name for the device is "Code Mercenaries KeyWarrior Combo O Commander" ,
but the message also shows 5 times!

What am i doing wrong?

Whats confusing to me too, is that i cannot use 
loadusr -W hal_input "Code Mercenaries KeyWarrior Combo O Commander" , that one won't work, only without " , its accepted.
As far as i know, you should always use " when there are blanks in a name / path.

Thanks in advance, Tom

hey i just saw this and had to comment as i have been down this path about 10 times on big machines.

my experience when i looked into it was that using any of the fanuc stuff was just not worth it compared to new chinese servos. i use the Yuhai brand (have bought like 70 of them now)

a 2.2kw motor and drive 200v input power costs like 300 usd per axis. so 600 usd total. and you get new motors and drives that don't have issues. i tried keeping old electronics going too many times and it didn't work out for me. the i spent like 1000usd trying to fix old fanuc drives and then heidenhain fagor misubishi etc eventually i just come back to what i should have done in the first place and just bought new motors. anyway after 7 years and over 70 motors ranging from 400w up to 4.5kw i have only ever had one motor fail. and no drives and i think that was our fault with bearing misalignment the zaxis brake failed in it. But it is truely nice to just turn the machine on and know that it's just going to work.

also china has very nice vfd drives now you can get a 11kw drive for 200usd. or one that can turn a normal motor(like a pump farm motor even..) into a pretty rigid servo drive for about 900usd for 11kw
anyway let me know if you want any advice cheers
