Heres the latest update on the project. I designed a water table 10.5 x 10.5 made from quarter inch thick Steel. I may increase size to 10.5 x 15.5 but not sure yet. It's pricy in material table so far weighs in at around 7000 lb and I am still going to add more support to it. It has removable slat bases that can be picked out of the bed with the crane for cleaning. I am designing for about 12 inches of water from lower to raise and shooting to be able to keep the slats 2 inch under water. I made the slats 6 inches long 1/8 thick every 2 inch. Do you think this is overkill??? 

I think my post has delve past the computers and hardware category on this board and more so turned into a full on build thread. If a mod wants to move the thread it would proably make sense. 

Lcnc, Rio, Modbus all looking good. GTK not so much though (Failed to load module "atk-bridge").

Are you on a VM or accessing your linux session via VNC or XRDP by any chance? Additionally, it would be a proactive move to list/describe all the GTK debugging steps undertaken so far so that others seeing this can be updated on your progress. Bet it's an easy fix.     

No iso actually, it's a tarball that gets deployed on either an HDD, SSD, USB drive or NVMe and it's not live.

Will try irqaffinity=0 -- I also need to play with nohz_full rcu_nocbs and isolcpus.

edit: Currently battling qtpyvcp on Gentoo. I do have FlexGUI working flawlessly on it. I have to use the `pyside6` branch in qtpyvcp and I've been working with Turboss on fixing the issues but there's hiccups in Gentoo itself that I'm hitting with it that I need to sort out with the developers. Will update soon.

As far as I know it shouldn't matter if you install it during compilation, otherwise it would be fixed with "apt reinstall linuxcnc-uspace".
What do you see with: uname -a ?
What do you see in the terminal when you start with: latency-histogram ?
 

The output of uname -a:
root@orangepi4-lts:~# uname -a
Linux orangepi4-lts 6.12.1-edge-rockchip64 #2 SMP PREEMPT_RT Fri Nov 22 18:00:26 +0330 2024 aarch64 GNU/Linux

and when running latency-histogram I get:
Note: Using POSIX Realtime

and just this, seems like waiting for something and nothing shows up any more

@Lcvette -

I'm still using the combination of carousel.comp and PB's parameter numbering I came up with a while ago.  In short, I substituted carousel.comp's internal pockets-to-move for the PB macros.

I've not updated to master yet to see if the tool number >199 issue has been fixed by the recent commit.

And regarding a change-to-tool not in the carousel, I think you all sorted that one out recently... but I haven't tried it yet to see if your prompt works.

Once I get the tool number <199 sorted, it'd be interesting to try an experimental config and see if the LCNC native tool number vs pocket issue works and the PB macro math & parameters can be abandoned or simplified.

On the other hand, even if the pocket issue is solved inside LCNC, it might still be necessary for PB to duplicate/mirror tool numbers and (maybe) pockets in some parameters so that some PB features are still viable.  Like checking for probe tool number, or (eventually) doing tool probe radius offset for tools over a certain diameter.

I'll try and do that tomorrow.
 

Der Link geht wohl bei mir nicht.

I habe kein OZ, aber soweit ich das sehe sind die sehr ähnlich. Die Winkel und Längen sind anders, aber das Grundprinzip ist gleich.

Mit selber machen meine ich, a) entweder den Einsatz, siehe Bild, passend zum Spannzangenfutter machen. b) sowohl Aufnahmene Kegel, als auch Einsatz selber drehen.

I have some logs created. In the logs you find the different rio.hal and rio.ini configurations.
Twopass disabled

It'a already fixed in 2.9 -just not released yet.

What version of lubuxcnc are you using?
Are you using the screen button the start the program running?

Also see the linuxcnc python module.
linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/config/pyth...inuxcnc_command_code

look for:
display_msg(string)
error_msg(string)

Ok can you run linuxcnc in a terminal and post the output.
Also what version of linuxcnc are you using?

Thank you for your answer. Wish you good luck

Hey PWC,

Thanks for the info. I'll see if those changes are already in Pathpilot and if not I'll figure out how to implement them.

Did you have a chance to look at creating the .bin file for the Tormach? If you need any info from the control, just let me know

Here's a pic of the .hal file if it's helpful 

I am cross posting this from the Lazarus forum as well.  If there is any light that can be put on the subject it will be very much appreciated.

I have inherited an old but essential app that connected from lazarus to LinuxCNC through PythonForLazarus.  The older version has been running on python 2.7 for many years.  Owing to the need to software upgrade I am trying to reconfigure to newer installation.  So I am at this point:-

- I can use CLI to connect to linuxCNC and have no problems. 

- Demo Python packages from LinuxCNC run with no problem.

- A test application set up in lazarus using python4lazarus as per the video on Youtube by Al As works exactly as expected.

So it seem that the configurations from both sides are correct, however as soon as I enter the python command "import linuxcnc" I get the PyExc_ValueError.  (I do not get any error for this in the CLI)

OS Debian12  installed from linuxCNC's live distro with PreemptRT.
Lazarus 3.4 and FPC 3.2  as installed with fpcupdeluxe.
Python 3.11 ( required for linuxCNC?)

I did an environment comparison between the CLI and Python4Lazarus setups.  The results show only that Python4Lazarus did not have the Pythonpath set.  I added that to the Pythonengine property, but to no avail. ( I attempted a few other methods as well)

  PythonEngine1.PythonPath := '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages';

I have spent two day solid fighting with this. I am not an experienced programmer so I have probably overlooked something obvious. (please be patient) I have trawled the forums and run all the AI's dry.   I urgently need assistance:(
