I'm going to open it up under the Elastic License 2.0. The repo isn't public yet because the internal API is a mess and running it locally is not trivial. So for those that are wary of web services I'll also include a script to make running it locally easy.

Hi andy

Yes i change the stuff from rev-dc 100 to -100... it works.
Still struggle with issues. Possible i can get help from u?
Today i look to the 3 signals from the proximity sensors.. found out that there are some spikes.. but the spikes are only a noise on the signal.. not in the area that they toggle the gpio.

I think my ngc is the issue.
Later i add some debug lines to see where it stops working.

I am xonfused about the strobe pin.. and dont understand the usage.

I use sense0 as index for homing and sense1 for the slot sensor on the slottee disc.
Some time ago you wrote i must use the strobe for the slot disc. But dont understand it correct. Can you please explain a little more please?

Thanks

Hi all,

I decided to build my ideal plasma cutter CAM program over the summer after being dissatisfied with our options for generating QtPlasmaC gcode. 
I've got it to the point where it is useful, so I'm opening it up for previews. 

Please have a look at metalheadcam.alan-gibson.workers.dev. Give it a try and post bug reports and feature requests in this thread.

The basic workflow is:
- Click the hamburger menu and then Tools so you can add your tool parameters
- Import a DXF file on the Import stage
- Skip the Edit stage for now as it doesn't do much yet
- Click the Apply All button on the Prepare stage
- Add operations to parts and shape chains on the Program stage
- Simulate the program on the Simulate stage or just skip it
- Download gcode on the Export stage

Thanks and I look forward to your feedback.
 

LinuxCNC 2.10 can do tandem axis, i do not know if 2.9.4 can.
You need this for the axis with 2 motors, and this way you can change direction of those motors separately, and this does require home switches for each joint that you already have, so all good.

Thanks MaHa,

The bracket syntax worked great, however, I'm still not able to access the INI vars after adding the INI_VARS = 1 to the ini file. Is there another setting that I'm missing?
