Hi, there, I made a new configuration of my new machine. Nothing special: open-loop motors, ball-screws on Zaxis and Xaxis, dual helical rack and pining gear on Yaxis. I have used my previous HAL and INI that used to work fine with some modifications on a different machine but with similar hw. But the new machine is showing an error after couple of minutes after operating the machines.

command (EMC_JOG_CONT) cannot be executed until the machine is out of E-stop and turned on

I am running EMC2 on RPI5 4GB. I have attached my HAL and INI for better debugging. Does anyone know what could be the problem? I have never experienced this kind of error. Thank you very much in advance for your kind advices.

that is awesome, for some reason multi spindle swiss machine just popped into my head looking at that. I have been watching to many Tornos videos drooling lol

branch: using_os_path_join

 

the rio-setup gui is running directly on windows now
 

 Here screenshot of the plotter when I use Y and Y2 view. The reason why I want a label for each axis is that it is clearer and more transparent and I remember which axis I am working with. This Flex GUI uses Probe basic .qss

OK.

Do you have LATHE = 1 in the [DISPLAY] section?

I'm looking into why the plotter does not show the correct view for a lathe like Axis does.

The Diameter/Radius checkbox works with LATHE = 1.

What Linux version?
What RT kernel?
Does
sudo lspci -v
Show the wifi card?
Any way you look at it, get a USB WiFi dongle, built in WiFi is PCI-E so can cause big latency issues when in use.
If you still want to use it, might have to install the latest RT kernel available for whatever your Linux version is.

All PC's in probably last 10 or more years like to have 2 memory modules as they can all do dual channel communication.
Some Xeon's and AMD can evem do 4 channels.
And yes, more memory improves latency, so 8GB should be minimum and there is no reason to have over 16GB for Linux and LinuxCNC if used for machine control only.
When possible, always choose 2x4gb or 2x8gb.

Did you change the the dtb in /boot/armbianEnv.txt
fdtfile=rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4-lts.dtb
-> fdtfile=rockchip/rk3399-orangepi-4.dtb
+ extraargs=isolcpus=5 or 2-5

And what result do you get?

To prevent the rt kernel from getting overwritten you could hold the package with: sudo apt-mark hold packagename

First make sure both motors on the X axis are turning in proper directions.
Make a new config with no tandem and set the X axis to both outputs, then do very small jogs to check.

Right now you can have a tool touch off button for each axis but the line edit to enter the touch off value there is only one.

What is your use case for needing multiple line edits?

Can you post a screen shot of your gui?

Hi. I have just tried to install LinuxCNC on a Fujitsu J550n wit a ax200 wifi card.
I have trouble to get it to work. Where do i start?

i found a alternative.
It wokring but not like the mist and flood Buttons. (If estop is not hit i cant use the flood and the mist buttons until i hit the estop and i turn on the mschine. Well in my solutions i can turn on even the estop is not hit. But i can live with that)

I saw something interesstin according to mist or flood in the .UI file.           
     
 <property name="mist_action" stdset="0">                   
  <bool>true</bool>                 
 </property>

I didnt found anywhere "mist_action", only in .ui file. So i guess it is something implemented somewhere and thats why it was not wokring my setup with "air_action" because its anywhere implemented (in linuxcnc).

Maybe do you have any idea where could i find the "mist_action"
