+ and - both go same direction

Category: Basic Configuration

I have used 2.7.14 for several years now without problems.  Friday, Chromium stopped working so I reinstalled it.  Now _ and - both go the same direction.  So I reinstalled. No change.  Suggestions?  Sherline mill.

that is because this is wrong
MAX_ACCELERATION = 2000000

and this does nothing no matter what value
DIR_HOLD = 50000


did your setup work before with mach3?

if it is stepper timing related you need to load the DMA stepgen config and adjust your step timing accordingly

darkpheonix try with this and go from there. if you are trying to set up a rotational axis, that is different than a linear axis in setup
Warning: Spoiler!



I thank you, the same crappy movement.

STEP_SPACE = 100000
STEP_TIME = 100000
DIR_SETUP = 50000
DIR_HOLD = 50000
i have removed this section but if put bad values linuxcnc go in juntion error, like put

I was also planning to mount the toolsetter on the ATC, so it becomes available when the carousel is out of the way.
But I'm a little worried it will trigger due to the movement of the cylinder, as the end cushioning is not that good, need to solve that first.

If you are going to be copying this post here - www.forum.linuxcnc.org/18-computer/44828...rd?start=2140#327240 - watch the caps and dashes. On my Rpi5 / bookworm install its not LinuxCNC but linuxcnc and them there should be a double dash (--) before install in both instances in step 2. no show stopper but it was not a direct copy/paste into the console.

A full blown NVEM config would be sweet. Or just little snippets like the one you provided for the end-stops. That bit of info now allows me to configure ALL my inputs.

See if you qualify for one of the free license alternatives for Fusion 360. If you do I think it is hard to beat.
One can argue that it isn't free, at least it doesn't cost any money.

Thanks for the input Langdons.

Good to know that a beefed up PC is a better choice than the Pi.

The thought did cross my mind to keep the motors and replace drivers. I would assume I'd need to get drivers that work with the Siemens encoders or replace the encoders with ones that match the drives.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks,

J

Enable signal:
This signal is used for enabling/disabling the drive.
High level +5V (NPN control signal) for enabling the drive, and low level for disabling the drive.

PNP and Differential control signals are on the contrary, namely Low level for enabling.

By default it is left UNCONNECTED (ENABLED).

Contradicting info.
Not unusual on China stuff, at all.

I use FreeCAD- the "Path" workbench got renamed to (more appropriately) "CAM" a while back- when searching for information on it, you may see references to both. It's adequate, getting better all the time (use the weekly builds!). Lots of little things that are obnoxious, but I haven't found anything better for any reasonable-to-this-hobbyist cost if you're doing more mechanical designs than organic/artsy. Being parametric on the CAD side and having adaptive toolpaths on the CAM side are huge for me. Definitely a learning curve, sometimes you have to go about things in unintuitive ways for various reasons to get what you want.

Depends heavily on what you're doing as well. Blender + BlenderCAM might be a good choice if you can manage the learning curve and are doing more organic/less "dimensioned" stuff. FreeCAD doesn't handle that so well IME.

If you're doing 2D/engraving type stuff, Inkscape or others might be better.

You might also end up using multiple for different things.

How to change jog speed using joystick buttons (QtDragon + HAL)?

Category: HAL

You could use a mux component to set halui.jog-speed.
Mux2 for 2 speeds from one button or
Mux4 for up to 4 speed from two buttons

the documents will be updated to reflect the struggles of you and the other users this last week.

to the 2 other users who posted the quick guides for flashing and setup, i would like to use those in the remora docs, i hope this is ok

OK, progress! I put the #end-stops into my .hal file and BANG, I get a limit switch error reported in axis on pins 3, 5, and 7.

THANK YOU to all that have gotten me this far!! I now know that the remora flash took on the nvem and the hardware part is working.

Just the nightmare of figuring out the rest of the .hal file to get everything else working. But as for now, forward is a good direction to be heading. :)
