With system I ment the drive and motor. They will not "know" if I pulled the plug on purpose (punishment), because I did not know better.
Or if the lost connection were due to wear and tear or insufficient assembly (not to be punished).
So my take is that I need to pay more attention to detail in the future, because I might have damaged a drive or two without beeing aware of the importance of the wiring.

Is the kerf width being compensated in SheetCAM or in QtPlasmaC?
Never on both.

Yes running linuxcnc plasma post processor and I’ve checked arc fitting tolerance and it’s the same as sheet cam on windows that works.

I'm working on a second version of a rotary union, i feel good about this one working but until it's built and tested it's all wishful thinking I'm just going to make short videos as i go and post progress. it seems like it is an interesting topic, and it seems justified to spend the extra time on that end.

How's the rigidity of the harmonic drive? I'm thinking of using mine as a B axis for the spindle. I will find one size smaller with a faster reduction for the table mounted rotory A or C axis.

This is the call that starts the touch probe routine with those settings.
Here is the actual probing program code.

First - I have NO idea what I did to fix it... but it is working now. I feel like I 'proved' the Infinite Monkey theorem ...(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem)

That said, when it WASN'T (or being pessimistic about the the future - when it DOESN'T) working, the target you refer to, was appearing but the DRO was not zeroing.

I'm going to do a text comparison of the now working INI and HAL files with the almost working INI and HAL. The almost working files allow me to start the router, move it around and homes without error... except it does not zero the DROs.

Guessing but it sounds like the component uses global C variables.
Check out 8.4 here linuxcnc.org/docs/html/hal/comp.html#_per_instance_data_storage if relevant.

Hello Gentlmen,

Excuse me, but once again I am facing weird behaviour of custom components file during its programming... 

I need 3 axis there fore I am using a 3pcs of components in the .hal file via count = 3..

I have many IOs stuff because component will communicate with profibus DP driver and it is basicly same as with ethercat but little bit different(other story) But long story short.. when I am homing there we have a custom homing subroutine and modes of driver are changing etc.. issue is comming - I have starting homing with single axis(over internal subroutine), any of them and mode of driver operation is changed over all components==all axis .. what exactly help me right now is have custom names of same component each but it is little bit tricky...

What the behaviour is this overflowing from one to other component in the single instance of lcnc?

Thanks En....

I don't find sim/gaxis, but I did find sim/gscreen, which is interesting. But I've also in the meantime found JT's Flexible UI thread, and I like the idea of being able to customize it easily. Having written a somewhat complex pyvcp panel for axis, that I now realize I can't use anywhere else, I'd rather the customization options are baked in from the start.

Nothing really surprises me anymore, people wear crocs.
Look how much a banana duct taped to a wall went for.

I wonder how much I could get for biscuit cable tied to stick ?

The very one.  I got jealous when you mentioned how convenient it is for you to get castings made.

yes, i can confirm the setting are not saved.
There is an error.

Start with the option -i and -s don't work, there are errors, too.

Dear Giovanni, thanks for your manual.
For me point 9 doesn't worked. The start as standalone doesn't worked because there are errors.
For me it is working with a softlink and you don't have to copy and delete:
sudo ln -s /usr/share/linuxcnc/gladevcp/NativeCAM/ncam.py /usr/bin/ncam

For point 1 (and 2) i think it's easier with the command:
sudo apt install python3-lxml git

For point 2:
Point 6: You use gedit, but it is not installed by default. Geany is installed by default from LinuyCNC.

Best regards

Usually omitting or deleting lines with HOME_...._velocity in the ini file and editing the homing and limit lines in hal is all it takes, but first:
-is the Y axis single drive/motor or tandem?
-is the Y axis the right choice for your use case? I usually do X axis as rotary.
-upload the hal and ini file so we can have a look.
