Gmoccapy - A new screen for linuxcnc

May be your monitor cable is to near to the power supply?

I just had these two items pop up. I'm thinking the one is why my g-code box doesn't always show the current codes. The other I've had from the beginning and not sure what it's about.

The smart serial error indicates a noise problem
Either cable from the 7I77 to 5I25 is routed next to noisy signals
(Power, motor leads, VFD signals etc) there is a ground loop somewhere,
or there are large noise sources around (contacts without arc suppression)

First i would like to say THANK YOU for this beautiful screen.

Gmoccapy is now running on a commercial wood workshop to control a retrofit 5x8 router. ( rye mg2420 )
Mesa 5i20 7i33 7i37 pwm velocity mode bosch servodyn.

I have feew question

1: how can i get the option to show the Gcode information about estimating time, and max x y z moove.

2: could it be possible in the gcode editor to ad the option REPLACE wich is very helpfull when you need to change a Z value.

3: how can i inclued a YES-NO question in a macro, which is for me a question of security if one day i push to the wrong button...... I start the spoilboard surfacing subroutine

4: do you think a tool log counter ( life time ) could be set in the to the tool table.



Again, thank you very much.

I just had these two items pop up. I'm thinking the one is why my g-code box doesn't always show the current codes. The other I've had from the beginning and not sure what it's about.

The first error says, that the script does not find a file. Please check if that file is present.
I aggree, that this error should not come up, but I have never seen it bevore.

How can I reproduce it?

1: how can i get the option to show the Gcode information about estimating time, and max x y z moove.

The estimated time has not been incorporated jet in gmoccapy, it is on my very long to do list, but may need some time, as I am busy with my 3D printer build up right now.

The max values should be visible in the preview, if you show dimensions.

2: could it be possible in the gcode editor to ad the option REPLACE wich is very helpfull when you need to change a Z value.

It should be possible, and I realy like that idea!
Chris: Could you give us a hand on that, as the original code comes from you.

3: how can i inclued a YES-NO question in a macro, which is for me a question of security if one day i push to the wrong button...... I start the spoilboard surfacing subroutine

I have never thought about that, but I do agree! May be I can incorporate some code to ask: "do you realy want to mess around ..." Or just do it with a smal custom python script, let me check on this.

4: do you think a tool log counter ( life time ) could be set in the to the tool table.

I do beleave it is possible, but it is not on my to do list. I do hope, that someone does rewrite the whole tooledit and handle part of linuxcnc, as it is old and does have several leaks of features like wear offsets or the number of tools that can be handled. So sorry, but I will not be able to solve that with my minimalistic knowledge about the very deep internals of linuxcnc. But I have seen some samples around, where people did check for run time of the machine with hal connections and I am sure it can be used also for your purpose.
