hello,I've managed to set my PID.I've mounted an encoder directly on my machine B axis. My encoder is of the phase type A+,A-;B+,B-;Z+,Z-.the feedback is correct on my axis position. However, it's impossible to detect my Z0. I have a 7i96s and I've connected my two Z+,Z- wires to pins 13 & 14 of TB2 on my card. My .hal file is correctly configured for homing with this Z phase. I've tested 5 encoders of the same type. but I can't find the Z pulse.Is there a trick? Can anyone help me? Thanks

The modal/active gcodes personally I find them to be more/less the same. I dont really find it any more readable than linuxcnc. They are both just a jumble of g and m codes with F S H T at the end. I just takes more space with coloums instead of rows

this is crazy!! after applying your parameters, my ping went down from 1.xx to 0.3xx

Thx so much.

 

I want to use an ATC spindle with a rack tool changer. I was struggling to find some ready-made script I could use and perhaps modify that would fullfill this goal. Is anyone aware of an existing implementation that was tested/proven by some people that does this? I was able to find some carousel tool changer scripts/designs, but I explicitly need a simple rack solution since the machine is a router with 1m length I can use for holding plenty of tools.

Megnetic are cheaper but more dust tolerant, just like rotary encoders.
Pros are price and dust/ contamimation tolerance, unless you get them full of steel shavings they will work.
Optical, glass scales will fail sooner than magnetic if you install them within fine dust presence area.
Big con is magnetic field sensitivity. Use of magnetic holders for coolant/air nozzles may shift your readings.
My(£100 motor and driver) magnetic encoder servo motors suffer so bad(plastic encoder covers) can make them rotate 3°(0.1mm axis move witn 10mm pitch screws) by putting magnetic indicator base next to them. Running spindle makes z motor 120mm away move the axis up/down 0.02-0.05mm and with right spindle speed it would start oscillating into oercurrent error. swapped the motor to optical encoder(£40 extra) and it all went away...

E-mails are working for sure.

Hello my friends.
I dont receive any notifications as well.... I checked my spam folder and I checked the option to subscribe several threads... but no emails at all...

i also have and error in the debug ,
'/usr/realtime-2.6.32-122-rtai/modules/emc2/hal_ppmc.ko'
:-1 operation not permitted
jetmill1_load.hal:8:exit value 1

Hi, not sure if this is still in development, but I use Qtdragon on my mill and installed on my lathe retrofit. My lathe is tool down, is there an option to flip the arrow keys and jog buttons to match this? (The diameter should increase then pressing the down arrow key)

If you get constant blinking red LEDs, this indicates a problems with the 5V supply,
perhaps insufficient current capability or too long power supply wires.

A solid red init LED is normal if LinuxCNC started and then communications
have been disrupted  (it indicates a watchdog timeout)

This may be a latency related issue.

To check network latency, run:

sudo chrt 99 ping -i .001  -q -c 60000 10.10.10.10

(this will run for 1 minute and print statistics)

I went to the file system
home/ jetmill1 / emc2 / configs / jetmill1 /
there seems to be several .ini files in that folder.
could it be looking at the wrong config file?
