Thanks , but nanny not required, how do I get axis to just close and not ask?

...and while I'm at it what about eliminating the 30 second delay for computer shut-down, can it just do it when I ask?

Thanks....

 
New foam cutter was born. Dual tbot. Or corexy kinematic. Now i control it using grbl with custom software. How to configure it in linuxcnc ? I can find single sided corexy ? How to make in dual, individual for each side. Also - same for scara one. On long todo list the smallest and most compact foam cutter.

I included the debug in the file ( and added some more to see where its stops. )
It seems to stop between :
M6 T#<_selected_tool>
And
G53 X#1801 Y#1802       (Taster Position)

Tools look like this:
T1 P1 X0.0 Y0.0 Z0.0 A0.0 B0.0 C0.0 U0.0 V0.0 W0.0 D1.0 I0.0 J0.0 Q0 ;1 MM 
T2 P2 X0.0 Y0.0 Z0.0 A0.0 B0.0 C0.0 U0.0 V0.0 W0.0 D20.0 I0.0 J0.0 Q0 ;2mm 


 

in the [DISPLAY] section of your ini file add
LATHE = 1

VFD only works with 0-10V so I planned to use PWM signal to voltage converter.
Does 7i78 output 0-10V analog directly?

Same same. Active "Axis UI" Gaga here!! 2ax LATHE, and also MILL. I'd use nothing else other than Axis even if paid or tortured. Sure a few will promote other UIs, but don't believe them, they are terrible influence

 

Progress,  I have LinuxCNC up and running on a Pi4.
Presently in Axis simulation mode, so the GUI looks much the same as what I see on my mill. How do you configure Axis so it knows the machine is a lathe?

Does the 7i76E have field power ?

Maybe this helps (not PB specific but I would not expect the GUI to make much of a difference):
linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/lathe/lathe-user.html

Anyone here who uses the probe basic lathe who can tell me how to set up the tool table from start to finish?
Have googled to find manual or other documentation on PB but haven't found anything, so if anyone can point me in the right direction I'm grateful. Bought a lathe and a Kitamura Zero mill when I retired to kill time
I have a Weiler 120 cnc with Bosch control which stopped working so I switched to Linux.  Although I have experience with both mill and lathe I don't understand how to set up PB lathe's tool table

Can you post your entire M6 remap code?

Re: glade
It's a program to build glade user interfaces. If you don't want to install it just post the file here and I'll try to update it for you.

After doing the lines' uncommenting, still not work, as shown in attached error message. Furthermore, i don't know how to opening the file in glade to do upgrading the 'gvcp-panel.ui' file? where is glade ?  Also, i don't know why my hardware now runs with the latency problem, this showed in error message and also when I run latency test, previously this did'nt happen.

Intel Celeron(R) CPU J1800 @ 2.41Ghz

I didn't buy a machine yet, i passed, it had spark issues

Not sure what's going on but you might want to insert some debugging statements:
Also make sure you don't have X or Y offsets in your tool table.

Do you need PWM or analog for the spindle?

If analog then using the 7I78s analog output would be best.

Here is 7I95T firmware for a 7I95T +7I78: (10 stepgens, 7 encoders, 3 sserial channels, analog spindle out on 7I78)
