I created a thread in the remapping code, but it cannot execute the loop in the thread.
I remapped a code to receive an external io signal. I need to read this signal in a loop for judgment, so I created a thread and let this loop execute in the thread. But when I tested this code, I found that it could not execute the function in this thread. I don't know why. My thread was created successfully. Hope someone can give me advice.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import struct
import sys
import os
from interpreter import *
import hal
import linuxcnc
import _thread
def Z_jogs(self,a):
print('a = ',a)
b=a
print('b=',b)
while True :
x = hal.get_value('lcec.0.5.RXPDO-5') #read EtherCAT io
print('x_in5 =',x)
if x == 1:
print("in5 = ",x)
self.execute("G0 Z %d"%b) #Control Z axis movement
b += a
elif x == 0:
print("in5 = ",x)
if hal.get_value('lcec.0.5.TXPDO-2') == 1:
break
# read EtherCAT io
def m203(self,**words):
yield INTERP_EXECUTE_FINISH
if self.task:
self.Z_jogs = Z_jogs()
a = (words['s'])
print("a=",a)
try:
_thread.start_new_thread(Z_jogs,(a,))
print('qw')
except:
print('erro')
