qtplasmac 2.10 arc ok, thcad thc, and Thcad Ohmic troubleshooting help needed.

Might have found it, started an issue.

github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/issues/2983

this is in the homing.c file

here is the code throwing the error, think it calls home abort for the joint

/* check for reached end of move */
if (! (&joints[jno])->free_tp.active) {
/* reached end of move without hitting switch */
(&joints[jno])->free_tp.enable = 0;
rtapi_print_msg(RTAPI_MSG_ERR,_("j%d end of move in home state %d"),jno, H[jno].home_state);
H[jno].home_state = HOME_ABORT;
return 1; // abort reqd
}


However the home abort case only does the current joint not all of them.

case HOME_ABORT:
H[joint_num].homing = 0;
H[joint_num].homed = 0;
H[joint_num].joint_in_sequence = 0;
joint->free_tp.enable = 0;
H[joint_num].home_state = HOME_IDLE;
H[joint_num].index_enable = 0;
immediate_state = 1;
break;




simple loop might fix the issue??? hope im understanding this correctly. e.g.

case HOME_ABORT:
for (int i = 0; i < all_joints; i++) {
H.homing = 0;
H.homed = 0;
H.joint_in_sequence = 0;
H.home_state = HOME_IDLE;
H.index_enable = 0;
joints.free_tp.enable = 0;
}
immediate_state = 1;
break;

Well i'm trying to fix this but seem to be missing something simple.

running the linuxcnc 2.9.2 downloadable iso for debian 12

pulled master from git
Made the changes,
compiled the code with some prints  using
cd src
./configure
make
sudo make setuid 

with this code 

        case HOME_ABORT:
        rtapi_print_msg(RTAPI_MSG_ERR, "Entering HOME_ABORT state\n");
        for (int i = 0; i < all_joints; i++) {
             rtapi_print_msg(RTAPI_MSG_ERR, "Aborting joint %d\n", i);
            H[joint_num].homing = 0;
            H[joint_num].homed = 0;
            H[joint_num].joint_in_sequence = 0;
            joint->free_tp.enable = 0;
            H[joint_num].home_state = HOME_IDLE;
            H[joint_num].index_enable = 0;
         }
            immediate_state = 1;
            break;


ran it. 
prints did not show up.

Seems like I'm either
1. running the old version of linuxcnc that was installed by default. dont think so as compiling changes it? still seeing 2.9.2 which makes me question (should it be 2.10?)
2. not ever getting to that code somehow...dont think this is it as it in the only place in the source code i can find that error. 
3. getting to that code but the prints are not going through cause I'm misunderstanding how they work. 

Any help would be great!

Thanks
 

You need to start from the built (RIP) install directory (eg if your are in the /src directory):
$ source ../scripts/rip-environment
$ linuxcnc

Thanks! That ran in 2.10 now!

Still having the same homing issue and error message not showing up. I am probably not understanding the homing code well enough. Will look at again tonight

will give that a shot and report back. updated the issue as well.

Was wiring things up today and bricked my 7i96 when uploading firmware. Luckly i had a 7i96s on backup which i would have needed anyways for the BOB. Sending it back to Mesa, they will flash it for free (+shipping). Thanks Mesa!


On another note what's the process for editing the UI? seems like the files are under the /lib folder. load them up in qt, edit and restart? I'm sure its more involved than that but not sure where to begin.
looking at adding an axis for the rotary (A) and bar feed (U) and need corresponding home buttons and read outs.

was also thinking of playing around with blue line thickness that shows torch travel between cuts. Sometimes they can be hard to find if needing to restart.

Thanks, will look qt over the next few weeks as i dial things in. I got the latest code running on debian 10 and the A axis installed and wired up. (debian 12 was giving me latency issues ryzen 3600)
Went to run a file generated from sheetcam and got "g92 offsets are not allowed" error. Documentation seems to want a g38 instead of a g92. 

Including the test file and sheetcam post, sent Les a link to this as well. Not sure which side this lies (should g92 be enabled when tube cutting is 1 or should sheetcam probe with g38) 

On another note, that float issue popped up again when cutting some plate for the a axis while on the latest dev branch (turns out when using the rip script make sure to call linuxcnc in the same line!!...doh). Going to check my probing settings and post them if i cant figure it out.
