Parse Error

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I am having virtually the same problem, but with a twist. Using the qtvcp gcode_graphics widget, which uses qt5_graphics, I can load any .ngc file with any tool number no problem. However, when the display is a VTK render window, any ngc file that specifies a tool greater than 9 causes a gcode interp error. For example, if line 3 in the ngc file contains:
G21 G40 G49 G64 P0.03 M6 T1
it works fine. If I change the line to:
G21 G40 G49 G64 P0.03 M6 T13
it throws:
!!!interp_error=1 result=2 last_sequence_number=3
I looked for the reason in gcodemodule.cc but C++ is beyond my brain capacity.
BTW, T13 is a valid tool. If I specify an invalid tool, so long as it's less than 10, it only throws a tool not found in tool table error, which is perfectly normal. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

They don't _have_ to be:

0 = 7i77 #1 digital I/O
1 = 7I77 #1 analog output
2 = 7I77 #1 expansion channel

Buts that's the way the standard firmware arranges them.

Laser Head Height Sensor – Looking for a Beta Tester

Category: Plasma & Laser

This one says height sensor is Ethercat or +- 10v

Some of their  controller packages refer to a TTA interface but don't describe it anywhere

Having a more open spec rather than closed source will be much better anyway.

RPi 4B w/LinuxCNC 2.9.3, Mesa 7C81, Isolation Card, PWM Card, Relay Card, More

Category: User Exchange

As noted the MicroSD card has the OS and LinuxCNC. It has the KiCad files. It also has the data sheets and documents for boards and components used on the boards I made.
 

Here is a screenshot of the system running. The Pi is mounted on the 7C81.
 

Here are screen shots of the directories with the included files mentioned above.

I was planning to use this controller setup for a Precision Matthews 728v-t mill using Teknic ClearPath SD servos. I was not keen on interfacing to the servos and mill spindle directly from the FPGA card, so I designed a 3v - 5v level shifting buffer / isolation card. I did the design in KiCad and all KiCad schematic and PCB files are included on the microSD card. Here is the schematic of the card.

Here is how the card was going to be used in this controller setup. The 7C81 had been flashed as a 5ABOBX3D.  There are three cards because the minimum board order was three. I decided to build out all three in case there was an issue with one, and to have spares. The boards have been powered up and tested. They are fully functional.

Obviously given HAL you don't have to use the board exactly as I intended.
