 Hey CNC4Life,

I can't find your project - I think the link is dead.
Can you post it here?
Here is my INI...Currently, the reference process starts, and I am at pocket 1. Then I want pocket 5.
The carousel goes to that position, but when I want to go back to tool 1, the carousel rotates in the same direction (so I end up at a pocket with a higher number).

The carousel.comp  ignores the parameters for unidirectional and reverse pins.

I think there is a problem with the counts being given to the PID.

fixing "raspi firmware" errors on the official amd64 ISO

Category: Installing LinuxCNC

[code]--architectures amd64 \

is missing from auto/config file
[/code]

Does that remove anything else? The first thing that comes to mind is the hostmot2 firmware. (which I think is also "architecture all" )

Can you explain a bit more, I've created a file with parameters and changed them and ran the file and the parameters are updated without loading the file or reloading the file.

Are the parameters altered using set parameter?

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I'm new to cnc and linuxcnc in general. I'm trying to create a mesa 7i97t config file with Mesa CT but I don't see the option to use QtPlasmaC as the GUI. Is there any way to to this?

what means TC abbreviation in TC_STRUCT?

Category: LinuxCNC Documents

in the source code there is TC_STRUCT,
my question is what means TC?
the TP abbreviation means trajectory planner, but the TC abbreviation is not explained.

Ohmic sensing with IPTM-60

Category: Show Your Stuff

With water on the table and too low short circuit current configured,
we get something like the orange curve. A damped curve with reduced "swing".
No sharp transitions between open and short circuit.
 

Of course I tried to fix this in software, therefor the four conditions to trigger a sensing contact
The right thing to do was to lower the R1 value and increase the short-circuit current.

Lathe : 2nd turret over limit switch

Category: Advanced Configuration

Hello I have this specific setup where my secondary turret is beyond my limit switch. What are my option if I want to use it and I still want to keep my security up? Is there a was to disable temporarily the limit switch with a specific tool? Thank you

Ohmic sensing with IPTM-60

Here is what a sensing cycle looks like under good conditions.
Green: Sensing output signal: 1 if contact, 0 of no contact
Cyan: Voltage between plasma tip and work piece
Purple: Enable ohmic sensing signal
Red: Z-axle position.

First there is a 15 ms reaction time for the relay to switch on, I call it setup time.
After the setup time has expired, the contact evaluation starts.
There are several conditions.
1. Voltage drop below a set voltage limit like 12 V
2. Voltage drop from voltage at end of setup, like 5V drop
3. Overall voltage drop over one cycle, like 5V
4. Overall voltage drop over three cycles, again like 5V.
For good conditions like then one in the picture all conditions triggers at the same time in principle.

WCS Problem with Linuxcnc/qtdragon was created by Bram kersten

WCS Problem with Linuxcnc/qtdragon

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I have avidcnc from 2017 from wich i recently replace the breakoutboard with a mesa7i76EU to make it work with linuxcnc.
Everything seems to be working fine,

The only problem i have is that it doesn't seem to use the WCS coordonates after i zero my machine But keeps using only the absolute coordinates when im running my gcode
This causes the machine(zaxis) to move into the bed when starting the program.

can somebody help me please.
Thanks in advance.i added my gcodeand my hall/ini files for qtdragon.

It's possible for my specific servo but there is not point to do this as my servo is not piloted by position but with analog (no ethercat drive)

Update of this project.
Regarding water on the table and difficulty to properly detect contact.
Yes, been there, done that. 
It seems to be caused by too low R1 resistance. Which means too low current at short-circuit.
Stray currents through water are in the same order of magnitude as the short-circuit current
and influences the voltage measurements. 
Too high R1 (low short-circuit current) and water on the table causes two things:
1. The measured voltage will only go to single-digit voltages, like 8V instead of 24V
2. The measured short-circuit voltage drop is only a few Volts. The voltage stays at some 8-3 = 5 V, where it should be 0V.
When looking at the voltage, well working means sharply up to some 23V, then sharp drop to 0V.
Not well working: Damped rise to some 10-ish V, damped drop of a few Volts at short-circuit.

Using R1 = 100 kOhm, short-circuit current = 0.24 mA. This is too low.
Using R1 = 2k7 kOhm, I = 8.9 mA works much better.

control spindle motor using modbus

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

I have a spindle motor that can be controlled using Modbus with a list of addresses sent as shown in the image.

I want to control it using USB/RS485, but I don't fully understand the Linux CNC documentation. Furthermore, there are not enough project examples and the configuration settings are not intuitive. So, I'd like to ask a question here.

I've included all the configuration programs in my GitHub link. I plan to use mb2hal for general function code, and Python for custom function code (0x44).

The program on GitHub has the same issue as the one I've included.
