Display motion.current-vel ? was created by skunkworks

Display motion.current-vel ?

Category: Plasmac

Am I missing it?  Is there a way to display the current velocity of the machine while cutting?   

Thanks!

BTW - Just setup Plasmac using pncconf - It was painless and QTPlasmac is a really nice gui.   No problems..  (mesa style board with thc10)

Great work!

Inverting jogging sense of X Axis on a VistaCNC P1A-S pendant

Category: HAL

Since this is for a lathe, there are only 2 joints in the HAL parameters. LinuxCNC requires that the joints are numbered from 0 consecutively, that is, I can only have joints 0 and 1. The association between joint 1 and the z axis is done in the HAL files. With that association, GCode works properly.

As I mentioned before, the pendant was jogging the X axis as I wanted in Step, Velocity and Continuous mode before I moved to the mesa card. I was using exactly the same vc-p1as.hal file as the one I'm trying to use now. Something very subtle changed and that's what I'm trying to figure out.

I tried debugging with halmeter and see what signals were triggered when I used the pendant, but that didn't help much. I'm still learning about the HAL.

Thanks once again for looking into this issue.

The gcode (M62,M63,M66) method with digital I/O will work for any motion but you need to change the gcode.

How to control brake before moving ?

Category: HAL

The intended use is for indexing rotaries as described in this section:
linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/config/ini...:ini:sec:axis-letter

If you need more than just G0 moves then you would likely need to make something up in HAL.

 

I can only control the brake with G0 moves.
here is the way;
[EMCMOT]
EMCMOT = motmod unlock_joints_mask=0x08
...

[AXIS_A]
...
LOCKING_INDEXER_JOINT = 3

[JOINT_3]
....
LOCKING_INDEXER = 1

I have to control the brake for G0,G1,G2,G3 and manuel movements. Because that axis' motor has mechanical brake.
In any type of movement, brake is have to be deactivated and after the movement it has to be activated again.

Do you have any opinion else ? What else I have to try?

Hi,
Check the Z travel to reach the probe in the .ini file.
[TOOLSENSOR]
MAXPROBE = XXX

is debs you can see if your OS is there and 2.7 is built for that OS version.

Mini was depreciated in LinuxCNC 2.7.
You could make a similar GUI using Flex GUI.

Axis and tool length sensor troubles

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

Hi all
After a couple of years, I am finally back and ready to making chips. I have a router, use steppers on parport. Linuxcnc is 2.9.4, debian doodle jump :

Linux cnc0 6.1.0-35-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Debian 6.1.137-1 (2025-05-07) x86_64 GNU/Linux

The router works, I can cut stuff etc. not the problem. The job that I want to do soon requires quite a few tool changes. So far I did it using the dowel method, but that is very time consuming. Sure an automatic tool changer would be perfect, but that's up for in a later stage. For now I have a tool length sensor, that I would like to use with my collet spindle to get tool length set after a manual tool change.

When I run tcdemo.ngc:

- goes to change position
- when I hit "Tool change complete", goes to zmax, tool sensor x and y, starts going towards the sensor.
- As soon as the sensor is touched, I get "Probe tripped during non-probe move" and program is stopped

How can I get over this?

I attach the relevant files in zipped folder "toollength_problem.zip"

You might want to double-check that the
G38.x command is active before motion toward the sensor begins. Also, review your HAL and INI files to confirm the probe input isn't being tripped by noise or an early signal. Did you try adding a small delay before the probe move to stabilize the signal?

Maybe have a look at the 'joint.N.unlock' pins:
linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/motion.9...OINT%20unlock%20pins
 

It seems to work for me.
Is there any example for unlocking an axis?

Does anyone have lathe working?

Run - python3 ncam and mill loads
Run - python3 ncam -c lathe and get the attached errors
