Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

@Garry,

Remap is a linuxcnc isue and will not affect the gui. It will work.

Hal pins for jogging no problem, just see the WIKI or the included documentation for the pin offered.

If you need other button, you can add a custom panel with the buttons you need.

Norbert,

I am feeling dumb today. How do I update to the latest 1.5.3.x of GMOCCAPY using GIT on version 2.6.7.
Does it need to be compiled compiled into 2.6.7 or can I just move the files over from Linuxcnc-dev.
If they can be moved what files and to where.

Thank you Norbert
Jim

MDI issues. I use the MDI allot, at least atm, I also use a physical keyboard for this purpose and one frustration I have is when I am reusing a command from the history my enter key will not execute the command. So instead I have to press the very small return button on the screen which is so small I worry about pressing something else.

Thanks all.

Gary, take a look at my last post on my "Tool Offset Patch" thread mentioned above.

It should clear, things up,

Also let's move the conversation over to that thread any way, so we don't get this thread off topic.

Thanks

Rick

Norbert,

I am having a problem with the spindle override using an outboard encoder.
In MDI if I set speed the encoder will move the speed up and down.
In auto mode it will move it up but not down below the base line. Also if it calls for 12000 RPM the base line is
now 235% not 100% and the speed will not go below that point. The min spindle speed is set to 8000 RPM.

I have another encoder on the Feed and that works correctly.

Hi,

is it possible to add an Programm run timer that shows the time the machine has needed to do an job?

@Jim

to manually update, take from git:

Linuxcnc-dev/src/emc/usr_intf/gmoccapy/gmoccapy.py

copy that one to /usr/bin/ and replace gmoccapy
Please note, the file is loosing its extention .py and you need to make it exucatable!

take linuxcnc-dev/src/emc/usr_intf/gmoccapy/gmoccapy.glade
and copy that one to /usr/share/gmoccapy/

All change can be found in Linuxcnc-dev/src/emc/usr_intf/gmoccapy/release_notes.txt

@dracozny,

I am working on the MDI isue, unfortunately it is not so easy, as gmoccapy is collecting all focus and I need to check all side affects. But I feel the same as you, as I do use also a lot of MDI stuff.

Norbert

@Jim,

I am not able to reproce that. Here spindle override is working fine using an external encoder.
Could you please send me your config folder?

Does that happen on every program, or also if you just are in Auto Mode??

Norbert

@nooob,

yes it is, but at the moment I am not planing to introduce such a program, as you can do that quiet easy using a custom panel and hal connections.
