USB pendant not drive axis was created by frayja2002
Hi all

I am using a DragonRise USB board set up  to drive various linuxcnc functions.
When I turned off the computer 6 months ago everything was working. Now I have turned it on, the inputs are working & the connected output pins are working but the software does not respond.

So....
input.0.abs-x-is-pos is the USb input (which lights up) connected to halui.axis.x.plus (which also lights up) .The machine is homed but the axis does not move.

I am using QTDragon on linuxcnc 2.9.3 on Debian. I have a second machine that I have not used for a while that is doing the same thing.
Is there some config type thing that I am missing here?

Attached are the relevant files

Thanks
Alex

I suggest you use halmeter ti watch some relevant pins/signals to see what is or is not happening.

for instance use halmeter to watch:
halui.axis.jog-speed (does it change when you press joystick buttons?)
halui.axis.x.plus (does it change when a button is pressed?)
input.0.abs-x-is-pos (does it change when a button is pressed?)

etc.
Then come back here when you track down the problem a little more.

Hi there

Sorry... I have had another look through my config file & realised that I am a twit.

I thought that the jog speed would reflect what was on the screen but I set it up so you have to (keep ) holding the fast/med/slow buttons for it to work.

Sorry to have wasted you time.
