Advanced Search

No worries at all, it has just become increasingly bad info all over the web, so at least here trying to keep info correct.

Just checked some 15 of my old and new configs, luckily i found one where search is positive and latch is negative (on Z), all others are same direction.

2000N i should have just let you convert it sorry i was going off of memory and should have added the extra 0 thanks for the catch on that.

Excellent to see stuff moving!
The torch voltage seems low but that is just a calibration issue.

Is there a reason why you are not using the qtplasmac config? 
linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/plasma/qtplasmac.html
Or did this project start so long ago it didn't exist?

Thank you so much! I figured it out with your comment.

It turns out that for whatever reason, when I set up my .ini file, I had commented out the .var file. I just uncommented it and now everything appears to be working normally. The offsets table is updating as I expect when changing work offset locations.

The littlest issues can be so frustrating when you don't know where to look, yet so easy to fix once you realize how the system works. Thank you again!

You could use this module instead www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004921994099.html
Then you could borrow my existing config for it

Hi , im new to linuxcnc i have been looking to run linuxcnc via ethernet with w5500 and esp 32 can someone please help , linuxcnc will not toggle e stop

Something sounds odd.
Docs on coordinates are here linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/gcode/coordinates.html

I wonder if the .var file is marked read only? This would prevent values from being saved.
Delete it as sometimes it gets stuffed up when setting up a new machine.

If you can't find it, check the file name in use in the ini file eg. for my QTdragon config
PARAMETER_FILE = linuxcnc.var

1. As far as I am aware the 'DIAM' value is for the radius of the tool tip on a lathe tool (ie for radius compensation G41/G42):
linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/lathe/lathe-user.html
To my knowledge, the values 'FRONT' 'BACK' 'ORIENT' are only used to change the tool display in the preview window.

2. Retraction of an oriented tool is quite simple:
    
    - stop program execution
    - change to MDI mode and execute 'g68.1'
    - Jog the Z axis in the positive direction

I have modified the sim config and brought the 'TWP' button back to the right hand panel. Clicking on this should now define a TWP at the current tool orientation and position.
(G68.1 X#<_x> Y#<_y> Z#<_z>).

The folder has been updated:

I did check one of my known good configs with a shared home/limit before my last reply. It uses a negative latch velocity.
github.com/rodw-au/vmnmillqt/blob/main/VMNmillQT.ini#L247
(units are metric)

Latching happens so quickly its hard to see what is going on. Sometimes I've slowed homing velocities right down (to 10% or less) to troubleshoot.

Thanks for you Replay.   
I tried it. I think something is wrong.
i get the following replay:
QtPyVCP 0+unknown, Probe Basic v0+unkown
Any idea about this?

Thanks
