Hello everyone, I got interested in this topic and found this post

Ah, so there's hope.
I am looking at T450/460/470 with touchscreen as I am planning on putting this on a small lathe with ProbeBasic. Perhaps, the screen will be too small but it should be fine to get me started and I do need a laptop PC for other stuff once in a while. 

Some WiFi adapters do work, some do not, there is no easy way of figuring out except testing.
Replacing the RT kernel does work though, i had to change to 6.13 for WiFi to work.
Strange as T470 has 4.19 RT (i think) kernel and WiFi works.

So, I noticed no wifi on any of the Lenovo laptops... That's a bummer as I was hoping to sync files and not have to transfer with USB sticks anylonger.

Is it only the internal wifi that's not working and whetjer popping in a USB wifi adapter would work?

The estimated program execution time is not working for me.





ps: I also get this error when I try to enter the calibration menu
ps2 : This error coming when the machine has completed the homing procedure. If I haven't done the homing procedure, I can open the calibration menu.

 
 

Hello,
I get the topic up again on given the occasion.
Since the situation has not improved even after several Debian and Linuxcnc updates.

The problem with the flying measuring button continues to exist, regardless of whether I use it to measure a tool or the workpiece height with Qtdragon Touch Platte.
The whole thing arises arbitrarily, even when the job is finished and the machine is in a parking position and I start the next job (the same program) everything works or not.
I have now noticed two special features.
The first one would always be happening when it comes to a quick touch, drives onto the button, which triggers, LED lights up and stops in the condition until I stop the program, after which I can drive z freely.
However, I am then caught there without starting Linuxcnc completely new to restart.
The second peculiarity that I noticed is that if I quickly trigger the button in a row, the LED on the MESA card registers every pressure, while in Qtdragon the LED that cannot follow and sometimes simply remains a cycle.

Here is the status report from Qtdragon:

CRITICAL Touchoff routine: Touchoff failed: Probe retract failed: Command timed out: (30 second)


Thank you and greetings, Frank.
