I have found that I often stumble across interesting topics while searching for info on the forum site that I would like to go back to at a future date.  It would be awesome if posts could be tagged and saved to a user's account list for easy retrieval in the future.  The list should be editable to remove old links that are no longer needed.

Kind Regard,

Probing routines changing mode from G90 to G91

Category: QtPyVCP

Big thanks Chris, that was a really quick fix from you!

Fixing the bug in the normal uses cases is what's most important as probing errors are not that common once you get used to the various probing functions.

The abort handling seems tricky to solve indeed. I went through the documentation in search for a solution. I was looking for a hook to detect when a program has been halted but I came up with nothing.

Maybe some of the more experienced LinuxCNC gurus here on the forum has some input on how this could be solved.

AXIS Jog Rate display not updating after calling set_jograte() functions was created by scsmith1451

AXIS Jog Rate display not updating after calling set_jograte() functions

Category: GladeVCP

In my gladevcp panel I have configured two buttons to set the jog rate. One to set to the lowest value that I use for positioning my crosshair laser, the other to set to the max value that I use. I have tried both ACTION.SET_JOG_RATE(rate) and GSTAT.set_jog_rate(rate), but neither affect the jog rate display in AXIS.  The documentation for GSTAT.set_jog_rate(rate) mentions that after setting the jog rate, the jograte-changed signal is emitted which I would expect to update the AXIS display but there is no feedback indicating that the rate has changed. Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?

FYI - I also have a combo box to select the current system offset system which does change the AXIS display after a new offset is selected, so I would expect these two functions to work the same.

glad you got it working. If you feel like sharing you could go to your cloned folder and post the output of:

Hi! And.. success!!!!!!

I found some issues in my ngc!

Later i make a video and upload! Then i show how to get a working toolchanger with the carousel.comp!

I made 3 failures...
Debounce-Modul wrong CAP!
Timing placing in the ngc
Order of handle stuff in the ngc


I collect later everything and show it.

Thanks to andypugh to show the right way.

Its not so fast like original Emco but its everytime done a correct Toolchange!

Carousel don t stop when estop is pushed

Category: QtPyVCP

As PCW mentioned those I/O should have some conditional motion safeties in hal, also anything critical that needs to stop immediately should also be wired to a power disconnect contactor to ensure absolute motion halting in the event of a estop. for mine my mushroom button halts both linuxcnc and all drives and motors. for the screen estop its just halting in software. this way i only press the danger mushroom if it is imperative everything must cease STAT!

Probing routines changing mode from G90 to G91

Category: QtPyVCP

You are right, i never ran into it because i almost always am running in auto mode but i found a handful of subroutines that fail to revert to G90 at the end of completion. i have corrected them and they will be up on on the next push for the development branch. for the stable branch you will need to manually copy over the edited files or make the same adjustments in your local subroutines if you have edited them. the list of affected subroutines are below:

probe_cal_round_pocket
probe_cal_square_pocket
probe_round_pocket
probe_valley_x
probe_valley_y

if you want to manually add in the return to G90 immediately you would add it after the end of the last move that is NOT in a confitional "if" statement o110 for example:
  (Probe Completion Move to Z Clearance Plane, and X Zero)
  G90
  F[#<probe_traverse_fr>]
  G38.3 Y[#<y_center_probed>]
  G91
  F[#<probe_traverse_fr>]
  G38.3 Z[#<z_probe_stack>]
  G90  <--------------------------------------------------- Add G90 here!

  (probe mode rules for WCO or probe position measuring only)
  o110 if [#<probe_mode> EQ 0]
      (Record X Zero in selected WCO)
      G10 L2 P#5220 Y[#<y_center_probed> + #<workspace_y>]
  o110 endif

  (Reinstate Feedrate Override)
  M50 P1

o<probe_valley_y> endsub

M2 (end program)


Regarding when a routine fails to complete from an motion internal abort scenario, that is an unfortunate situation where the G91 was active at the time of the routine abort failure typically in a G38.x move.  I am not sure the best way to do anything about that so I am open to ideas, this abort comes from linuxcnc so i don't think i can add additional code to follow in the subroutine that would be executed.  i could be wrong, but i'm simply unsure how i would do it, so if you know post up please and we can incorporate that safety!

Thanks,

Chris

Category: EtherCAT

Normally you can safely use a higher rated motor on a lower rated drive, it just wont have the full torque/speed.
Except some really cheap China drives, all drives have current limiting, so they will output whatever that maximum is, and usually that can be set with DIP switches or software.
The problem arises when drive can provide more current than the motor attached can withstand, so limiting current is a must.
And just in case:
Voltage = speed = RPM
Current = torque
-you can drive a higher current rated motor with a lower current rated drive, it will limit torque
-you can NOT drive a lower current rated motor with a higher current rated drive without LIMITING current
-you can drive a higher voltage rated motor with a lower voltage rated drive, it will limit speed and sometimes torque
-you can NOT drive a lower voltage rated motor with a higher voltage rated drive without LIMITING output voltage and current, and even then some motors will overheat due to the PWM nature of the drive and spikes in output current/voltage.

Getting (hopefully) close to an Rtelligent build

Category: EtherCAT

I have made some big progress lately. I have the limit switches and homing switches working. I also have the E stop working.

My issue is the RS750E AC servos shake quite a bit. Without the drive belts installed, the servos will sit and shake after completing a move. With the drive belts on, the system moves in the correct direction, but does so in a shaky manner.

My hypothesis is too much integral gain. I believe the problem is because I started with the stepper motor examples. Maybe there are some PID gains inside the drive that I need to configure.

I think what I need are the drive gains set with the SDO parameters inside the XML file.

Thanks for all the help

EL7342 Current Capacity was created by rbobey1989

EL7342 Current Capacity

Category: EtherCAT

Hello everyone here, I'm performing tests with DC motors and would like to use the Beckhoff EL7342 module. I've seen in the module's data sheet that it can supply up to 3.5A. Although it's not very specific, I imagine this current refers to average current, meaning it can withstand transient current spikes. For example, motors always consume a little more current at startup. Furthermore, the load I want to move is static and doesn't change over time; it's always the same.

After all this preamble, I'll share the specifics of my problem. I need to drive a 48V, 4A, 180W DC motor. I'd like to use the EL7342 module, which delivers up to 3.5A on its own. According to the datasheet, a ZB8610 can be added to increase the output current to 6.5A. I've run some tests on the motor with a true RMS multimeter, which has indicated between 7 and 4 amp.

Well, guys, as always, I appreciate any ideas or experiences you may have. Best regards.

The forum is really laggy recently.

I use Cloudflare DNS.

Cloudflare replaces the IP with a Cloudflare IP.

As stated previously, all I did was paste the IP of forum.linuxcnc.org, retreived from bgp.he.net, into an A record in my Cloudflare DNS page.

Traffic running through linuxcnc.langdonstaab.ca is proxied by Cloudflare, replacing the IP of forum.linuxcnc.org with a Cloudflare IP.

The simple way is to just create your tab in the ui and add your widgets then using the Python module connect all of your widgets to your Python code.

A basic .hal file for a simple gamepad

Category: HAL Examples

This is a basic .hal file for a simple gamepad.
I use this for manual milling on the diy cnc.
For my safety I removed the joysticks and only use the buttons pressed by a 3d printed plug.
