qtdragon_hd; can't seem to change linear jog speed to something reasonable was created by kenthompson
Everything seems to be working in my qtdragon setup. However, one of the remaining issues is that the jog slider is maxed out at 9000 at startup, which is way too fast for my steppers. I read that MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY in the ini should set the slider's max value.. but that does not seem to work. I've tried all of the suggestions I could find online, but still no luck.
What am I missing here? I can't seem to set the slider to something under 9000 mm/min..
Thank you in advance!
My current config can be found in github at: github.com/KennethThompson/printnc_qtdragon_hd_config

MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 150
In the ini file, change to whatever seems reasonable for you, 100=6000mm/m

in your INI you have:
MIN_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 0
MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 150
DEFAULT_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 150
Those numbers are in units per second. 150 x 60 = 9000 units per minute
What number did you try?
DEFAULT_LINEAR_VELOCITY should set the starting speed.
I'll check on my system that it works properly.
Also did you get linuxcnc from a Debian package or buildbot package?

I changed MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY to 50 and that set the max jog to 4500- which is perfect for my setup. I am somewhat confident I am using the buildbot after executing steps in the Debian 12 tutorial which 'tricks' apt update into using the latest nightly build.
