i have a problem, which i cannot solve. for explanation i uploaded a video to youtube.

Losing Zhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYyqIDSBtUs


This is the procedure to reproduce the error:

- start and reference machine: G54 Z = ABS Z (180)
- video 0:03 load tool and do auto measurement
- video 0:11 G54 Z is set to new value 126,058
- video 0:21 start a sample nc-program
- video 0:24 hitting escape key. OOPS= G54 Z and ABS Z have same value again (93,942)

Just hitting "play" again would lead to a crash (2 tools lost until today)! only way i know to fix this is to change and do automeasurement again!

Anyone an idea, what i am doing wrong? Or is this a bug of gmoccapy or a problem in gcode?
Greetings

Andreas

Dont know why no answers here, was my question too stupid, to unclear?
whatever. I solved it with a hint from another forum!
In my case i had to delete the G49 command in on_abort.ngc.
Thx

I did read it but i could not help as i do not use gmoccapy, Gave it a try a while back but it messes to many things all over the place and that is something i do not need. It does look nice!

I have been busy and am only now catching up with the forum backlog.
But now the video no longer exists.

Does that mean that you solved the problem?

Does hitting "esc" turn off the motors perhaps?

The VOLATILE_HOME setting might help, though that only really applies to machine-off situations.

I haven't heard much from Norbert (Gmoccapy developer) for quite some time.

Norbert is away since some time? Oh no! Please not! Gmoccapy has become my absolute favorite GUI!

I solved the Problem. It was due to my limited Knowledge about gcode *shame on me*. Hitting escape leads to an G49 (switching of tool length compensation). i removed this line from the file macros/on_abort.ngs and everything is fine now!

Thx for your Reply and i hope Norbert is still active in the future!

I am still active, but at the moment my work need time and my hobby becomes short.

Gmoccapy 3 is in my mind and as part allready on my computer?

Please be patient with me
