Calling subroutine from mdi?

Hallo Hakan,

sorry for the late reply, I am very bussy theese days.

What happen if you enter in the MDI window something like

Does the spindle speed change like it should?

I do not understand, why it works in Axis and not in gmoccapy, as both GUI uses the same interpreter and IMHO do handle the MDI commands in a identical way.

Yes this works as expected.
Then I wrote the commands as a subroutine and called that. Didn't work. Constant speed.
But I found out what is going on. I put in a G4 P10 after the static rpm command
to read out the rpm from the vfd - and after that the subroutine worked!?

Can it be that the spindle must be up to speed when the G96 command comes.
Why it isn't I don't know. There is a spindle-vfd.at-speed connected to motion.spindle-at-speed
in custom.hal. Perhaps that is not enough?
When I run the small command suite as a subroutine call in the MDI the speedup fails every time.
When I run it as a regular file it works every time.
When I run command by hand in MDI, the spindle speeds up as expected.
I put in a G4 P30 in the MDI and had time to enter the small command suite.
Result: Spindle didn't speedup as it should.
My assumption is the commands where then executed immediately after the G4.
So there is something with timing of commands, or many commands in a row.
Or spindle-at-speed?
Tried again with Axis - worked fine also with G4 P30.

Hallo Hakan,

I found the bug!
It is related with the spindle speed label, I found a solution, but it is only a work around.
I will push as soon as possible.

Solved with gmoccapy 2.1.6.1,

Just pushed to master.

Solutions for 2.6 and 2.7 branch will follow soon!

Norbert

Yes, confirmed. Works fine now.
Thanks!

Edit: Lathemacros now works fine.

NICE!
