Gmoccapy Quedtions issues

Hi,
i am very happy with gmoccapy on my lathe but ob the mill i have 2 questions

1) i use remap heavily and have an ATC so how do i switch off the manual question of that tool
is there a parameter i overlooked ?

2) i have to prepare some python macros for the workers so my question is how do i get an py file on the macro button ?

the error message shows that he tries to adjust the macro name with an ngc on the end

help would be appreciated

1) i use remap heavily and have an ATC so how do i switch off the manual question of that tool
is there a parameter i overlooked ?

Just do not net the gmoccapy toolchange hal pin. and net the iocontrol.0.tool.... pin to your own remap and toolchange related stuff.

2) i have to prepare some python macros for the workers so my question is how do i get an py file on the macro button ?

Have never tried this, it is on my to do list, but I am afraid there is no possibility jet. Have you tried, using an user M code to start the python script?

Norbert

Thank you
the m code rewrite is an good idea but i then rather teach the old master how to use open
and mouse and so ,.. he is used to the TD2500 of the bridgeport -

and i tried to not use
net tool-change gmoccapy.toolchange-change <= iocontrol.0.tool-change
do not do the unlink and the above line
my ATC comonent doesnt work how can that be ?

i ll try to find that my be in my config

hallo,

xou need to connect the iocontrol.0.tool-change and prepare stuff to your tool changer component, otherwise the tool will never be prepared and never a signal changed will be given.

Hi thank you for the fast response i do that perfectly when i use axis
it is even changing the tool perfectly but then gmoccpy asks me kindly some press button if you have changed the tool stuff
how do i switch that off

i need to run lets say an drilling job which requires 3 tools unattended ,..
but if the systems ask for press a button i have a problem.
so if someone knows how to switch that off would be nice
thx
thomas

Thomas,

it will not ask, if you do not use the gmoccapy hal pin, but you are forced to connect iocontrol tool change, tool changed prepare and prepared to you changer component!

Norbert

thx newbynobi
i change now the postgui file to
# the unlink pin commands are only used, because they are connected
# in core_sim.hal and we use this file to simulate
#check unlinkp iocontrol.0.tool-change
#check unlinkp iocontrol.0.tool-changed

#check net tool-change gmoccapy.toolchange-change <= iocontrol.0.tool-change
#check net tool-changed gmoccapy.toolchange-changed <= iocontrol.0.tool-changed
net tool-prep-number gmoccapy.toolchange-number <= iocontrol.0.tool-prep-number

net tooloffset-x gmoccapy.tooloffset-x <= motion.tooloffset.x
net tooloffset-z gmoccapy.tooloffset-z <= motion.tooloffset.z

and it worked
i overlooked it
very good job thx

for the old master i need to write an drillmaster.py script which does him the cycles he needs so i will need some time but then
i would like also to have it on an makro button
therefore i ll do the script open source -
thx
