You are correct I have a paid license. I used to use the free version some time ago and I don't remember it having that limitation but I know they have made multiple license changes over time for the free version which is unfortunate. Glad to see you have made a solution to work around it.

I don't use axis but this post may be similar to what you are looking for:

Hi,
I'm trying to run a little test program, and it aborts with the fault message: 'Motor 0 Positionssfehler (sic!) Position: relativ erwartet' ('motor 0 positioning error position: relative expected').
The program is this:

%
(G90: Set to Absolute Positioning)
G90
(G94: Feed Rate Mode Units per Minute)
G94
(G17: Select XY plane for arc moves for G2 G3)
G17
(G21: Set Units to Millimeters)
G21
(G54: Select coordinate system 1)
G54

G1 X0 Y0 F1000
G1 X10 Y0
G1 X10 Y10
G1 X0 Y10
G1 X0 Y0

M30
%

I'm a bit surprised since I'm setting G90. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

P.S. little typo: 'Positionssfehler' should be 'Positionsfehler'

I have a working configuration with LinuxCNC using AXIS and would like to try switching to Probe Basic.  I've gone thru the Pncconf trying to create a Probe Basic configuration and it seems to require configuration of Mesa cards which I don't have.  I'm using direct GPIO into a Rpi hat, which isn't directly supported from the standard stepconf tool either, but I was hoping to do what I did with stepconf -- make a config that assumes normal Linux parallel port configuration, and then modify that to use the Rpi GPIO HAL.

I saw a reference to a Probe Basic sim configuration in another thread with the suggestion that someone with a working normal stepconf config could look at the Probe Basic sim config and see what modifications need to be made.  But I can't find that sim config.

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Hello,
I found the file qtdragon_handler.py on my hard drive and copied it to my machine folder, and now it works.
So, it seems there's a path missing from my .INI file?

Hello,

Thanks for the quick help.
Now I just deleted the comments in the Ini and the mistake has disappeared. But the comments were at least half a year without problems.
Something must have changed lately.
I left the comments in the change routine.
Very strange.

Many greetings and thanks, Frank

I'll have a look tomorrow, what ISO are you using, exact filename will make life easier, any particular reason for 2.7.14 ?
Windows or Linux host ?

hello every one thank's a lot for your supporting reviews 
I will try to reply all your questions 
maximumm Y length : could be mostly infinite but more probably arround 10 to 50 m as I'm mainly intrested in kite building (or hot air balloons if it works ) 
fabric to be cut will be mainly spinaker nylon witch is unstrechable and has 2 different sizes of frame that make a small patern easyly sens by optical mouse sensors 
ESP cam is a great idea if it could keep track of move even when speed rising up mouse sensor is mainly a very low res grey scale cam 

fabric tension : first idea was only to add a bit aof static friction on non pulling side motors but torque management is a good point too 
it could also avoid me to do somthing I've not explain yet I was planning to make in cutting back plate 2 serries of holes and hook it to small but enough vacuum source to suck the fabric on the back plate and cut between tow lines of holes 

to avoid wrinkles and other disasters when roolling and unrolling already cut parts I was thinking doing some kind of timestamping or tabs like on pcb pannels or others flat milling machines or wood or composites pannels 
 
thank's for all your advice 
now I think the best thing is to try few things 
can you please advise me some harware in order to connect all of this 
6 stepper controller (may be I will use one more small stepper to focus laser beam)
and 2 or 3 esp cam or mouse sensors (may be I can also get a closed loop on X axis)
