Is there any documentation for the basic probe gui? I haven't been able to find anything substantial.
I'm currently struggling with getting calibration working. There are 3 rows of fields at the bottom of the probe gui. The rows starting with "clear x", "clear y", "clear all" buttons. Are these meant to display the calibration values? They are all 0's for me.
I've been running the calibration routine for an internal diameter. It does not populate those rows. I've found
www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gui/qtv...ets.html#_basicprobe
which states:
Code:
requires extra analog motion pins for probe settings.
And the link in my last post says:
Code:
These pins must be connected in the postgui file for probing to work:
net xwidth motion.analog-out-00 => qtdragon.x_width
net ywidth motion.analog-out-01 => qtdragon.y_width
net avg_dia motion.analog-out-02 => qtdragon.avg_diameter
net edge_angle motion.analog-out-03 => qtdragon.edge_angle
net edge_delta motion.analog-out-04 => qtdragon.edge_delta
net xminus motion.analog-out-05 => qtdragon.x_minus
net yminus motion.analog-out-06 => qtdragon.y_minus
net zminus motion.analog-out-07 => qtdragon.z_minus
net xplus motion.analog-out-08 => qtdragon.x_plus
net yplus motion.analog-out-09 => qtdragon.y_plus
net xcenter motion.analog-out-10 => qtdragon.x_center
net ycenter motion.analog-out-11 => qtdragon.y_center
net cal_offset motion.analog-out-12 => qtdragon.cal_offset
So I have those lines in my qtdragon_postgui.hal. Am I meant to customize them for my setup in any way? If so, I don't understand what I need to do.
Initially I was getting an error and the calibration routing would not run. The error was 'NameError: global name "ngc" is not defined'. I fixed(?) that by changing "ngc" to "sub" in line 274 of basic_probe.py (under def cal_btn_clicked)
Code:
cmd = "PROBE {} {}".format(sub, parms)
Now the cal routine runs, but does not populate those 3 rows. It also gives me lots of errors in status window. See attached photo.
