Machine stop working

Hello,
I have the following problem...
1. I load my G Code program
2. I start my Gcode program and cancel it.
3. I want to put away the tool in the spindle. Storage tool ind Carousel
4. Machine moves in front of the changer, moves into Z position and then nothing happens anymore.
5. I cancel with ESC.
6. I switch to manual
7. I press storage Tool again.
8. Now he storage the tool as usual.
WHY???

9. I load my program
10. I press load spindle safety with a tool.
11. I measure my zero point.
12. I press unload spindle and take out the tool.
13. I press program start.
14. The machine moved to the tool changer and moves to Z position.
15. The machine hangs in automatic mode and do nothing happens anymore.
16. I abort the program with ESC.
17. I restart the program.
18. Now everything is running as usual again.

Why does the machine always stay in one position and do nothing?

i think it´s not a problem with any ngc files. when the programm runs first time then it will run until the end....

Debian 12 with APT Probe_Basic Installation
but i Have tested it with my Debian 11 too... same problem

Any messages?

No nothing... thatś the problem... no error... no warning.... nothing

This sounds like it is hanging in the macro, maybe a wait for M66 not returning.  did you add abort messages when things time out? anywhere there is an M66 there should be an if statement with an abort message and it should stop the macro so everything clears and returns you to a normal state.  if you have no abort messages then you will get no feedback. it should look like this:

M64 P0 ; Move Carousel out
M66 P1 L3 Q5 ; check for carousel out sensor
o120 if [#5399 LT 0]
    M65 P0 ; switch off atc out solenoid
    (abort, ATC not in position)
o120 endif

yes i have it. i have tested it with M01 breaks....

but the machine stops at the end of the Z move the next move is a Y Move
at this problem:
1. I load my G Code program
2. I start my Gcode program and cancel it.
3. I want to put away the tool in the spindle. Storage tool ind Carousel
4. Machine moves in front of the changer, moves into Z position and then nothing happens anymore.
5. I cancel with ESC.
6. I switch to manual
7. I press storage Tool again.
8. Now he storage the tool as usual.


and at this problem:
9. I load my program
10. I press load spindle safety with a tool.
11. I measure my zero point.
12. I press unload spindle and take out the tool.
13. I press program start.
14. The machine moved to the tool changer and moves to Z position.
15. The machine hangs in automatic mode and do nothing happens anymore.
16. I abort the program with ESC.
17. I restart the program.
18. Now everything is running as usual again.

the machine hangs on z with open drawbar and did not the next z move down....


but when the Programm is running it runs until the end without errors!

i think that problem is the change from manual to auto or back? i don´t know

here are the 2 files where the machine is hang off....
 
 

and my 2 Tested Gcode Files
 
 


by the way.... on this 2 gcode files the ATC Tool List shows me only the first tool who is needed....
when i delete the first 2 Operations with the first 2 Tools then the tool list shows me the rest of all needed tools

add print dialogs at each point and run it linuxcnc in from terminal to see where it is stopping by the PRINT messages. that will tell you exactly where to check for an issue.

ok. can you tell me how i do this? and i will do that...

Follow the examples in the toolchange ngc, just add a (PRINT, message text here) around each point near the failure. This will print to terminal when encountered in the subroutine.

Right click in the directory your ini file is located and select open terminal here.

In the terminal enter:

linuxcnc your_ini_file_name.ini

Click enter

Ok thank you i will check this. So i add this print lines on every line in this 2 ngc files or only at the lines who the machine is stopping?

got this message
